They give everything they've got
Crawl through blades taking every shot
But what's it all worth, as time ticks on?

Falling flat on their hands and knees
Playing the beggars who cannot read
Another lie to the hopeless and weak


I'll be what you need
When all else fails


Take one last look at me
Before you write me off

Will you draw before you drown
Will you sign before your found
Under terms do you agree

To sign the subject hand the keys
It's all over, all over for him


I'll be what you need
When all else fails


For all we are fighting for
We've come to respect this more


I'll be what you need
When all else fails
I'll be what you need

When all else fails

(Whatever it is we're fighting for)

(We've got to learn to respect this)
(Whatever it is we're fighting for)
(We've got to learn)
