Cynical Days Lyrics

The song Cynical Days is performed by XTC in the album named Oranges & Lemons in the year 2002 .



Another year's gone by
The world's grown older
Sometimes I heave a sigh
People grow colder

Every day I do my best to show
I can make it in this world I know
But all the bad thoughts that people bring
My faith in human nature's getting pretty thin

Help me get through these cynical days
Help me get through my cynical ways
You say, it's just a pa*sing phase
You've got to help me get through, these cynical days

Another see through scheme
People are shallow
The dark night's closing in
My dark thoughts follow

I try and make my world a better place
(My efforts seem in vain)
But I'm competing in a human race
(Falling deeper down the drain)
That value things that just don't count
Makes me wonder what it's all about

Help me get through these cynical days
Help me get through my cynical ways
You say, it's just a pa*sing phase
You've got to help me get through, these cynical days

Yeah, you say, it's just a pa*sing phase
You've got to help me get through, these cynical days

Yeah, you say, it's just a pa*sing phase
You've got to help me get through, these cynical days

Yeah, you say, it's just a pa*sing phase
You've got to help me get through, these cynical days

Cynical days
Cynical days
