- We Are Underused LyricsOut beyond the call of duty
Hold your instincts hostage and stick near me
Let's drink a toast
It's the most I can stand to cry
About the mental energy
You wasted on this wedding invitation
Let's thank the host
You've been such a great host
The roast was just so perfectly prepared
Now I know you cared
Now I know you cared
We are underused
We are underused
Simply put I want to grow old
Dying does not meet my expectation
Let's drink a toast
To all those who arrived
Alive to tell about their struggles in hushed
Tones around the fire, it's late winter
Let's sink the ship
Mix our blood just a tip
A crip is sleeping on the basement stairs
Oh I know he's there
Oh I know he's there
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
Hold your instincts hostage and stick near me
Let's drink a toast
It's the most I can stand to cry
About the mental energy
You wasted on this wedding invitation
Let's thank the host
You've been such a great host
The roast was just so perfectly prepared
Now I know you cared
Now I know you cared
We are underused
We are underused
Simply put I want to grow old
Dying does not meet my expectation
To all those who arrived
Alive to tell about their struggles in hushed
Tones around the fire, it's late winter
Let's sink the ship
Mix our blood just a tip
A crip is sleeping on the basement stairs
Oh I know he's there
Oh I know he's there
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
We are underused
