The Age of Anxiety

[Verse 1] I just wanna live inside sometimes Don't wanna have to beg you to subscribe Are you a man before your father dies? "But what’s a man these days?" I hear you cry And are we raising up our children right? Is my career gonna reignite? See all the virtue signalers tonight I want that bandwagon to pass me by [Pre-Chorus] Well, I've been scratching around in the dirt Looking for meaning in the cold, cold earth To gather in what's left of your self-worth Cause only love is what survives of us [Chorus] Cause I hold onto you And you hold onto me A tiny victory in the age of anxiety [Verse 2] Do those kids know that I was somebody? And I’ve kept all my texts from Amy My mother was one of those bodies Another stranger off the ferry [Pre-Chorus] Don't wanna put my hands up in the air And raise my phone up like I just don't care And [?] blow me down the White House stairs Oh, did I waste my time on all that prayer? No, I won't be your apparatchik And be the kind who's blind to all its magic So here comes your European exit With asylum seekers in your attic [Chorus] So I hold onto you And you hold onto me A tiny victory in the age of anxiety [Bridge] Today I do not feel like being strong I don't wanna admit to the world I'm wrong Don't make me feel that I have to belong I hope the band won’t make me sing along [Chorus] Cause I hold onto you And you hold onto me A tiny victory in the age of anxiety A shining victory in the age of anxiety [Post-Chorus] I hope the band won’t make me sing along I hope the band won't make me sing along Oh, mmm The age of anxiety I hope the band I hope the band I hope the band I hope the band [Outro] I hope the band won’t make me Whoa, whoa I hope the band won't make me Whoa, whoa I hope the band won't make me Whoa, whoa I hope the band won't make me Whoa, whoa (Love survives of us) Whoa, whoa (Love survives of us) Whoa, whoa (Only love survives of us) (Whoa, only love survives of us)
