From the recording Still We Try
Lyrics
Semi-trucks and minivans
We all join in the jam
Holidays in our own ovens
With a soft soprano serenade in stereo
Homewardbound, a thousand towns and
Cities that all share a common route
Only slowly going nowhere
Nowhere in a cloud
And still, we still, we try. Still we still we try.
Fire fighting fire every side of the parade
A grand display designed to make you venerate
The victories, the tragedies
The blood that stains the clay
But however far we travel we can never,
Never get away
And still we still we try. Still we still we try. Still we still we try. Still we still we try.
Demo dust and diesel fumes, hovering in the air
A stagnant layer of poison our vehicles are swimming to deliver us
A dozen years could easily stretch a century
If measured by the flood of sweat and tears
And silent cries that echo in our ears
And still we still we try. Still we still we try. Still we still we try. Still we still we try.
