You're strong  you're stubborn now
In an endless symbolic war

Brave or bored  either or

Sometimes I ricochet from the past
And at times a future I've already had before
Champion or chore  either or

I'll write the pages you rip out

Back in their places again
One day you'll know what you're talking about
I can hardly imagine  but until then I'll be
Filling in these blanks that you create

Every time you win some petty score
Posing as hardcore  oh yeah  either or

Look at the spin chief  battered and broken

Clutching a plastic rose
We're all in the downpour you carry around for
Trashing a lifestyle you've never known

It's a useful dream that makes

Quite an entertaining show and not much more
Up against and for  either or
