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 passing 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 passing phase, you've got to help
me get through these cynical days.
Yeah, you say it's just a passing phase, you've got to help
me get through these cynical days.
Yeah, you say it's just a passing phase, yes, help me get through
these cynical days.
Yeah, you say it's just a passing phase, you've got to help me get
through these cynical days. Cynical days. Cynical days.
XTC is a British alternative rock band formed in Swindon in 1972. Led by Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar) and Colin Moulding (bass), the two founding members and primary songwriters, the group went through various musical phases, from punk to new wave to a more orchestrated pop sound. Despite some popularity in the 1970s, the band never achieved mainstream commercial success, but gained a cult following thanks to the originality and complexity of their compositions.
