Lyrics

Holed up in hell knows where
With nowhere left to go
All I had I lost somehow
For reasons I don’t know
Way back in ‘94
Never dreamed we would come this far
Now we’re way too far from home
But if we slam the open door
We could start a holy war
And we’ll all be screwed for sure

Because these are desperate times indeed
We’re short on love and long on greed
We keep on searching, but we can’t find what we need
These are desperate times indeed

White bows in scarlet hair
A girl she used to know
Memories trapped in time
Before she lost her soul
Never meant to be this way
She didn’t just wake up one day
And decide upon a tragic life
But time has a cruel way
And lives get ruined everyday
By the choices that we make

These times call for desperate measures
Let’s cut these ropes and all get untethered
We’ll all get loose and come unraveled at the seams
It might just be what we need.
