Zoe Muth & The Lost High Rollers Whatever's Left
Take me down to the back side of town
Down by the railroad tracks
I don't want to see what they are trying to show me
I want to see what's slipped through the holes and the
cracks
And you can take what is new
All I want it something true
You can block the sun you can stand still while we run
And make better time with every step we take
I thought I could live on what I had to give
But now you tell me I've made some mistake
Am I the one who's been misled
Holding on to the hopes that the others left for dead
Chorus:
What will we do when our strength and our money's been
spent
Will our love survive by some strange accident
I want to hear you say
When something is broken or something is bent
I want to hear you say
We can make do with whatever is left
We swore on the buttons of our coats
And the laces of our shoes
Our backs to the wind a broken world ours to mend
We didn't have much else to lose
Just a song to sing
If we've still got that well ain't that something?
Chorus:
Take the old make it new
Make it over, make it do or do without
Take what you find from what others left behind
The ashes and the bones and the echo of that shouted
word
That I still don't know
But somehow I still cannot let it go
Chorus:
