letra de presidential silver lining (live) - john craigie

[verse 1]
i just got up on stage and this is what i said
i said
if if if if everything, everything is f-cked
i’m sorry, that’s no way to start a show
i apologize i started again
i said
most, most, most, most things are f-cked
but please don’t give up on me now
’cause i’m here to get you out of this dark whole
that’s my job after all
craigie make them laugh, make them cry oh
that’s what it says in your bio
oh make ’em cry, that will be easy tonight
way too easy tonight
but make ’em laugh?
almost impossible
it’s like a funeral out there

[chorus]
don’t let the darkness break you my friends
there are so many of us and only one of him

[verse 2]
so i, i, i, i did my research
i tried to find some silver lining
but i didn’t have much time and it ain’t great
so i hope you can appreciate my findings
here’s what i found
it’s historically proven
that when the presidents a republican
we have better music
artists are better when they’re bummed
that’s how it goes, that’s how its done
when times are good, musicians they get lazy
and the bad music slips out and it drives us all crazy
for example
in 1995 a new band name nickleback came out
and in 1995 the democrats were in the white house
i’m just saying
same goes for linkin park, matchbox twenty, mmmbop
oh i’m just saying
macarena, justin bieber, all the results of the democrat leaders
i’m just saying
the world may go to sh-t
but we’ll have better music

[chorus]
don’t let the darkness break you my friends
there are so many of us and only one of him

[verse 3]
now i’m not gonna get up here
and tell you things gotta get worse before they get better
oh that’s just not true
things could just get better, stay better, continue to get better
oh but that’s not what things usually do
just ask
rosa parks, muhatma ghandi, nelson mandela, martin luther king
every now and then there’s a bunch of bullsh-t
you gotta fight it
and when we fight it
we always win
oh but the pessimist in us want to scream, “craigie shut up
what about the battles that we lose?”
i tell ya fool
them just the battles that we haven’t won yet

[chorus]
don’t let the darkness break you my friends
there are so many of us and only one of him
