Why Bother?

Let's fall flat on our faces again
Let's face the facts, assume this is the end
Let's save ourselves some time and waste our lives
On tasks less doomed to fail
Let's just drink ourselves under the ground
Ignore all those false hopes struggling to get around
Do we really still have to plan for the next time?
Don't we know by now no matter how hard we try
It'll never be fine, because
Hope will let you down
Control will make you look bad
Courage gets you killed
And integrity's a passing fad
Hope will let you down
Control will make you look bad
Courage gets you killed
And integrity's a passing fad
I am doing everything I can and nothing whatsoever
Surplus to requirements forever
Don't tell me we stand more chance together
The battle's lost, the leader flees,
We follow hell bent for leather
Let's just drink ourselves under the ground
Ignore all those false hopes struggling to get around
Do we really still have to plan for the next time?
Don't we know by now no matter how hard we try
It'll never be fine, because
Hope will let you down
Control will make you look bad
Courage gets you killed
And integrity's a passing fad
Hope will let you down
Control will make you look bad
Courage gets you killed
And integrity's a passing fad
Ignorance is certainty (here's how it will always be)
Security is temporary (show me to the next pipe dream)
Hope will let you down
Belief will make you do wrong
Courage gets you killed
And optimism is an obvious con
Hope will let you down
Belief will make you do wrong
Courage gets you killed
And optimism is an obvious con
