Onterrible

lyrics

Build it up or tear it down
That doesn’t make it common ground
We’re just trying to level out

The landscape but for who?
If you’re so proud of everything that you’ve been up to
Don’t say that it’s about the

People or the places that you mess with each night?
Why you keep coming at us if you’re so satisfied?

I think that we’ve got it made and don’t care if you understand
All the things we’ve sacrificed to master how we thrive on what we’ve
Always had within our hearts but never quite inside our hands
Cuz I’ve been called a lot of things but honest to god
They’re not all that bad
Aw, you poor sap
What’s so Onterrible about that?

So let it go or reel it in
You’ll never catch that one again
There’ll always be a bigger one

And who couldn’t use more rest?
It’s never been a contest
If it was we all know who’d win

All the people and the places messed with each night
Why you keep coming at us if you’re so damn content and so satisfied
With everything that you think we lack
Cuz I don’t think it’s all that bad
Aw, you poor sap
What’s so Onterrible about that?

It’s not the best
But we’ve got lots of things you can’t find in the west

Not so Onterrible
Not so bad
