Nü Romantics Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now tell me, lady, do you feel at all? (do you feel at all?)
For all the lazy, for those you can’t write off (write them off...)
I’m feeling, lately, like you’ve been giving up (like you’ve given up)
On every labored hand here in our promised land,
On the backs we whipped then covered up.

[Chorus]
It’s not that far away, it’s not that far away,
Every single time I think we’ve made it,
I feel the decline I’m proudly jaded, but,
It’s not that far away, it’s not that far away,
Every single time I think we’ve made it, our fantasy fades away.

[Verse 2]
Grace was amazing until our faith ran out (until our faith right out)
Justice, you’re playing me for bigger bank accounts (big accounts...)
Cocaine arrangements, ghettos, and hand-me-downs (they were handed down)
She’s always got a plan to use her fellow man,
No use believing in what she says.

[Chorus]
It’s not that far away, it’s not that far away,
Every single time I think we’ve made it,
I feel the decline I’m proudly jaded, but,
It’s not that far away, it’s not that far away,
Every single time I think we’ve made it, our fantasy fades away.

[Bridge]
Now I’ve got it, and I’ve lost everything,
Every single time I think we’ve made it,
I feel the decline, I’m proudly jaded, but,
It’s not that far away, it’s not that far away,
Every single time I think we’ve made it, our fantasy fades away.

[Outro]
These tired and poor, you said to bring them all to you,
They’re all waiting for you to reap what you sow.
These tired and poor, you said to bring them all to you (it’s all for you),
They’re all waiting for (we’re all waiting for) you to reap what you sow.
These tired and poor, you said to bring them all to you (it’s all for you),
They’re all waiting for (we’re all waiting for) you to reap what you sow.
These tired and poor, you said to bring them all to you,
They’re all waiting for you to reap what you sow.
