I just wanna live inside sometimes

Don't wanna have to beg you to subscribe

Are you a man before your father dies?

"But what's a man these days?" I hear you cry

And are we raising up our children right?

Is my career gonna reignite?

See all the virtue signallers tonight

I want that bandwagon to pass me by.

Well I've been scratching around in the dirt

Looking for meaning in the cold, cold earth

So gather in what's left of your self worth

'cause only love is what survives of us.

'cause I'll hold onto you

And you hold onto me

A tiny victory

In the age of anxiety.

Do those kids know that I was somebody?

And I've kept all my texts from amy

And my mother was one of those bodies

Another stranger off the ferry

Don't wanna put my hands up in the air

And raise my phone up like I just don't care

Let outrage, blow me down the white house stairs

And did I waste my time on all that prayer?

No I won't be your apparatchik

And be the kind who's blind to all this magic

So here comes your european exit

With asylum seekers in your attic.

So I'll hold onto you

And you hold onto me

A tiny victory

In the age of anxiety.

Today I do not feel like being strong

I don't wanna admit to the world I'm wrong

Don't make me feel that I have to belong

I hope the band won't make me sing along.

'cause I'll hold onto you

And you hold onto me

A tiny victory

In the age of anxiety

A shining victory

In the age of anxiety.

I hope the band won't make me sing along

I hope the band won't make me sing along.

The age of anxiety.

I hope the band

I hope the band

I hope the band

I hope the band

I hope the band won't make me

I hope the band won't make me

I hope the band won't make me.

Only love survives of us

Only love survives of us

Only love survives of us

Only love survives of us.
