"Shrug And Destroy" lyrics - WILCO

Some long for the past
Others dream of at last

Days continue
Multiply multitudes
I wonder who destroys
When no one is left, rejoice

All our statues
Lullabies and rented rooms
Distances no one will go
For instances no one can know

I say goodnight
Leave the room unsatisfied
Like a child, I lie
Almost alone, but not quite

Crowded avenues
Homeless in tennis shoes
Sometimes I wish to set free
The things that still matter to me

Days continue
Like a knife might intrude
I wonder who destroys
When nothing is left, rejoice
When nothing is left, rejoice
