[Verse 1]
Here we are going nowhere
And it's not bad, could it be worse?
The ice cream man's got a new line of work

[Refrain]
We go up, up, up, try holdin' on
To almost there, but it won't come today

[Post-Refrain]
They're holding court on Montrose and 21st
And the cops don't care, they want it to get worse
It goes bang, bang, bang, bang
Nothing changed, they just gaslight the blame

[Verse 2]
They ought to make a dance
For when the world shits its pants
You go up, up, up, try holdin' on
To almost there but it won't come

[Refrain]
You go up, up, up, try holdin' on
To almost there, but it won't come
You go up, up, up, try holdin' on
To almost therе, but it won't come
And we'll remеmber everything
The dogs in the rain and the sunken eyes
Feelin' so strange
[Bridge]
Like, how many more?
How many more?
How many more?
How many more?
How many more?
How many more?
How many more?
How...?

[Outro]
It goes bang, bang, bang, bang
Heartless thieves, it ain't me but it might as well be
