Hard Times

[Verse 1: Ryan Miller]

Enter a scene that defies description

They say to open your mind

And take it all inside

One click at a time

We move through fictions

And send our sisters to the sacrifice

A cruel conviction

Sinister systems keep us satisfied

These are hard times

[Chorus: Adam Gardner]

I'm breathing in the oxygen

I'm holding it through hard times

I'm breathing out in the ultrasound

Things come around in hard times

[Verse 2: Ryan Miller]

Ten thousand miles of the new prescriptions

So we open our mouths

And take 'em all inside

One pill at a time

The purist fictions

We send our sisters to the sacrifice

With cruel conviction

Sinister systems keep us satisfied

These are hard times

[Chorus: Adam Gardner]

I'm breathing in the oxygen

I'm holding it through hard times

I'm breathing out in the ultrasound

Things come around in hard times

[Bridge: Ryan Miller]

A new religion

We send our sisters to the sacrifice

And then the audience goes wild!

[Outro: Adam Gardner, Ryan Miller, Both]

I'm breathing in the oxygen

I'm holding it through hard times

(These are hard times)

I'm breathing out in the ultrasound

Things come around in hard times

(These are hard times)

I'm breathing in the oxygen

Take it all inside, take it all inside

(I'm holding it through hard times)

I'm breathing out in the ultrasound

Things come around in hard times
