Babyland - Test Pilot lyrics

If we're descendants of power and grace we're caught in such a desperate state. The way things may have been is now compromised? What do we salvage? Standing on my own. I'm here because of them. For those who carried on. Should I struggle for the same? Whatever I may find is free to all who care. A gift of false rewards. A promise of nothing. I could see them, see them look away. I could see them all cover the tracks of their past. I wasn't let in when they knew what was coming. Wide eyes. Inexperience. They never told me what nothing meant. Lead on into the ugliest mess. Pa** it off as a search for tomorrow. "What needs to be done, needs to be done." And I take it on though I know it's too much. I'm overwhelmed and exhausted from building it up. The constant attack. I keep my head up high just like a test pilot. Do you remember? Or, do you recall all the bullsh** involved? The lines I was fed just to keep me from quitting. Will you remember when you forget? Who tested it out. Who's still in the hole. Who's still at the bottom.
