about
New 2014 single from Joel Battle.
lyrics
When love's a cruel joke and work is hard to find
When you're drowning in debt you took on in better times
There's an anger deep down you don't want to admit
Is taking control of you bit by bit
Well it's surely broken this American dream
That we believed in since the day we could read
Around you and me the waters have grown
Feels like our future's been stolen right from under our nose
Well you've got to pray for the rain
To fall on these fires, before the flames grow higher
You've got to smile on your brothers
'Cause all we have is each other, in the end,
When you're looking for love but you just can't find it
You're all out of patience and you're lonely as hell
Pour some cheap whiskey in a flask, bum some cigarettes
Strike up a conversation with someone you just met
Well you've got to pray for the rain
To fall on these fires, before the flames grow higher
You've got to smile on your sisters
'Cause all we have is each other, in the end
Well you've got to pray for the rain
To fall on these fires, before the flames grow higher
You've got to smile on your brothers
'Cause all we have is each other, in the end
Yeah all we have is each other, oh in the end.
