lyrics

Bread and Roses

days get shorter
nights so long
you can’t quite recover
where you once belonged

driving down the highway
you can’t find a home
all you see are miles of malls
where big herds used to roam

years of bread and roses
your memory gone blank
still a sheaf of gratitude
with no one left to thank

beauty lasts forever
the seasons rise and fall
now the birds flap flying south
they heed that secret call

years of bread and roses
your memory gone blank
still a sheaf of gratitude
with no one left to thank

i am out here squinting
for the light that will not end
you can watch my vapor trail
as i fade round the bend

years of bread and roses
your memory gone blank
still a sheaf of gratitude
with no one left to thank

there’s no one no one left to thank
a sheaf of gratitude there’s no one
