lyrics

we know it's not enough
but in the end it's all we have
the things we do for love
when we've given all we can

and these are the lies we tell ourselves
when we're drinking our bodies back to health
in the silent refrain i hear it well
we kill ourselves for nothing
and it's not enough

hey orpheus
tell me where'd you get that stone
was it worth the mess
now that you're alone?

cause these are the lies we tell ourselves
while we're drinking our bodies back to health
in the silent refrain i hear it well
we kill ourselves for nothing

and there is no poetry in the falling apart
no glory in giving up all that we are
no grace in retreating back to the start
and we know it's not enough

so give me something new
give me cocktails with molotov
and tell me what to do
when all the lights are off

cause these are the lies we tell ourselves
while we're drinking our bodies back to health
in the silent refrain i hear it well
we kill ourselves for nothing
and it's not enough
