Default For all the cynics....

LOSING THE FAITH
SA

It's not the 80's anymore,
They're long gone, along with tight spandex pants and gigs you can afford,
You say Jon can't hit the high notes,
And he's forgotten how to rock,
Why don't you build a time machine,
Reverse the goddamn clock.

This future you're in isn't safe,
Brothers and sisters,
Are you losing the faith?

Richie's looking older,
And everyone's divorced,
Christ, they've gone country,
They play the same songs every tour,
You want every track,
To be like Prayer,
So you can pretend that no-one's older,
And that they never cut their hair.

Crush was crap,
And so was HAND,
You hate Lost Highway,
You hate the band,
Brothers and sisters,
Those days are gone without a trace,
And now you're losing the faith.

You'd rejoice to see blazing fireworks and trapeze stunts,
Or if they toured each country every month,
Back in the 80's everything was cool,
The leather and denim, no old man's cashmere or wool,
Nothing will ever be that good again,
Nothing they do will relight that flame,
You felt back then,
Don't you wish it was 87 again?

Brothers and sisters,
Have we lost you?
Because time's moved on.
Losing the faith is a pity,
When you've kept it for so, so long.
