Whatever It Takes

from Black Diamond by The Resonators

	/

lyrics

Is it worse to be the quitter
or worse to be the winner when we
When we’re not fighting anymore
then tell me what we’re dying for

Spinning out of control faster
looks like this is a catastrophe
And nothing’s ever been so clear
you gotta get me outta here.

I just want to make it through
Find the difference between love and truth
Find what it means to be a man
When you’ve got nothing left to lose

And I don’t want to know the answers
cause the cure is worse than the disease
Who knows how this all will end
well I guess that just depends

I can see the smoking gun
marching closer to extinction
Don’t want to go out like this
not as a Goddamn hypocrite

Not listening to your fighting words
maybe you just haven’t heard
We’re not martyrs anymore
I’ll tell you what we’re living for

Just because the ship is sinking
that doesn’t mean that I’ll just quit and leave
Looks like they just raised the stakes
I’ll do Whatever It Takes
