The Birdwatchers - The Cycle Continues Lyrics

Won't see the whole if you don't add up the parts
Clean up the kitchen, lord knows that's a start
Do mountains of laundry, exposing the floor
And let current events affect my daily score

I don't know why
This cycle continues to go on

Segments on politics and finance reports
Headlines of calendars confirmed to the courts
But convinced that we're great again, pretending we're better
Guys wearing t-shirts saying "women for whoever"

I know it's wrong
But I won't pretend to understand

They're not taking it slow

Should've known this was coming, now you'll see how it feels
Imprints of platforms cause they've dug in their heels
No time for the facts if they don't like what they see
But at least we have the TV

I don't know why
This cycle continues to go on

And the cracks start to show in the mines
Given time you can find
That the world has moved on
Yes I know, it's not taking it slow
