Brave Words (2023 Remastered) ​The Chills

Watching the positive people
The numbers are dwindling away
Sometimes I wish I could join them
But I'm scared by the choice that they've made
'Cause what are their chances now
If they've chosen to settle down?
It's not hard to see why these problems
They resigned the wrong round

And now they're setting goals, making plans
Because they don't want to understand
That the fear of death and the search for truth
Ultimately fail to lack of proof

What I'm trying to say is there must a better way
If they retained their aspirations
They might have a chance one day
I mean does apathy come with age?
'Cause I'd much rather go down fighting
Then at least I could go with pride
I'd rather go trying to battle
Battle the doubts inside

Instead of watching the wrinkles grow deeper
And noticing varicose veins
Laughing at previous actions
As the ways for the brave or the strange
When we thought that our world wouldn't change
Well, we must have been out of our brains
