Common sense
What's to understand?
we've broken down
let the engineers sort the
problems out,
On the one hand
I see that as a solution
but on the other
I think
why bother?
why not crack on
move along
broken,
( reminds me of a game )
coming busted or not.
You got a choice
You can protest
use your voice
or
remain broken.
I'm undecided
six of one
a bakers dozen of the other
they're all cheats
so
why bother?
Enterprise,
nine lies to a truth.
I work
have a roof over my head
try to understand on the one hand
and with the other one
cover my eyes.
If you can't see it
it's not there,
right?
( reminds me of another game)
blind man's huff.
Breaking apart is the start of it
falling to bits sits quite well with it
I'm going to go on for a little bit
and a little bit's better than none.
