Crush me softly 
Or cradle me hard 
And the more I wanted 
Was the scariest part 
A measure of control 
Well not this time 
And I wanted to learn so 
I claim the lesson as mine 

The politics of lasting just a little bit longer 
Is the art of living every day 
That which doesn't kill you only makes you stronger 
Until it finally kills you all the way 

You take every action 
And apply the math 
You could reap the rapture 
Or risk the wrath 
And if you rate the reasons 
Then the best ones lose 
And all that means is 
You got no excuse 

The politics of lasting just a little bit longer 
Is the art of living every day 
That which doesn't kill you only makes you stronger 
Until it finally kills you all the way 

Harmonica powers reactivate! 

Gonna pull up stakes 
Gonna try again 
Do whatever it takes 
To draw you in 
It's what I am 
And it's all I know 
Like the carnie man 
You gotta work the show 

The politics of lasting just a little bit longer 
Is the art of living every day 
That which doesn't kill you only makes you stronger 
Until it finally kills you all the way
