The Airborne Toxic Event - Wasteland Demo Lyrics

[Verse]
What's the point of living in this wasteland?
What's the point of running when you can't stand?
What's the point of screaming when you can't even breathe?
What's the point of never saying "sorry"?
Burying your pain in this quarry?
Counting everything that you've lost
While nailed to your cross
While nailed to your cross

[Verse]
You said, "What's the point of leaving when you can't stay?"
I told you everything'd be okay
And you're cheery when you're nearly deadpan
So we spent the day listening to Graceland
That's the day we heard about the road bomb
Our baby girl was coming in just month
And you threw thе empty glass against the wall
And screamеd and said you'd rather watch the world fall

[Bridge]
And your father lies still in a hospital bed
When he called you he just started coughing instead
And you held on to me as our baby cried
The way I did in your arms
The night my father died
And there was no way, there was no way, there was no way
I was ever gonna leave
[Chorus]
And we're living here in this wasteland
Our hearts held in our hands
Our bodies filled with yearning
While everything is burning
And we're living here in this wasteland
Our hearts held in our hands
Our bodies filled with yearning
While everything is burning

[Bridge]
And your father lies still in a hospital bed
When he called you he just started coughing instead
And you held on to me as our baby cried
The way I did in your arms
The night my father died
And we're shivering cold
And we're dying of heat
And we're hiding in homes
And we're running down streets
And they're closing the highways and hospital doors
With bodies like angels laid out on the floor

[Outro]
And we're holding on, and we're holding on, and we're holding on
And we're holding on, and we're holding on, and we're holding on
In this wasteland
In this wasteland
In this wasteland
In this wasteland
Help me, God, I can't breathe
Help me, Mom, I can't breathe
I can't breathe
