Yes, We Can't Songtext
von Monzano

It′s falling apart
That's not so hard to see
Once a bond and a trust are severed
They′re hard to retrieve
Minus 777 gleams
On a giant screen
Tonight I'll hide beneath the covers
In my Manhattan retreat

So wake up, wake up and smell defeat
'Cause this is the end and we know it
It′s time to be alone
′Cause this is the end


Now they're raising their glasses
So here′s to staying blind
'Cause tonight we′re gonna party like it's 1929
And read every sign
Put them on the list
If I leapt from the Brooklyn Bridge tonight
I bet I wouldn′t be missed

So wake up, wake up and recognize
The end of the world, we knew it
It's time to be alone
'Cause this is the end

The candle burns to the end
As we stumble ′tween the bars
And I just sigh and think about
How it′s been years since I've seen the stars
When they go

Oh I never thought that it would come to this
I′ve read every page of The Economist
Even the trophy wife can tell I'm a mess
But she said anything but loveless
