Better Living Through Desperation Lyrics by Eels
Gonna go back home again
Gonna switch the light
Come on, glow in the dark
Just another night
Will the sun bring some fun?
Well, I can only hope
Better living through desperation
You alone can throne the moan
Well, I can understand
Still, you talk, and you don’t fall
But you’re in quicksand
Maybe soon, a brighter tune
Will whistle through your lips
Better living through desperation
Better living through desperation
One day, we’ll find our way
To a calm and tender place
And you have a wobbly smile
Etched upon your face
Gonna go back home again
Gonna switch the light on
Gonna think about our time
When these days are gone
Better living through desperation
Better living through desperation
