Over The Finish Line (feat. Anaïs Mitchell)

Once in a lifetime
The power is ours
But we'd rather stare at our phones

Talking about nothing
Heads in the clouds
Might as well leave it alone

If I could change a mind, whose mind?
If I could make something to get us o'er the finish line

America's bleeding
We're watching her die
Fire and blood on the screens

Her headlights receding
She's waving goodbye
Curtain comes down on the scene

Holding her torch high
Stumbling below
Luck be a lady tonight

Ships in the shadows
Heavy laden with gold
See how they catch the light

If I could change a mind, whose mind?
If I could make something to get us o'er the finish line
We're living in hard times, feeling hard times, living in hard times

Living in hard times
Hard times
Living in hard times
Is it hard times

Became a mother
Trying to figure it out
But everything fills me with dread

What will we leave her?
Words stick in my mouth
And I hear your voice in my head

What is this democracy?
Carrie, I fear that we've made our beds

If I could change a mind, whose mind?
If I could make something to get us o'er the finish line
We're living in hard times, feeling hard times
Living in hard times
Hard times
This is hard times
Living in hard times
Feeling hard times
Living in hard times
