state o four affairs

The morning wears a veil of rain
Above the city I live in
Traffics edging forward again
But no one knows where theyre going
Could it be the sign of our affairs Im seeing?
Cause well still be here
When weather turns and blue skies reappear
When youre crestfallen
Well, you climb Mount Desolation yet again
And you find were all just ordinary men
Find some comfort in the bar
And hear the news from my brother
He tore his happiness apart
And says his heart wont recover
Is this just a sign of our affairs Im seeing?
Cause well still be here
When weather turns and blue skies reappear
When youre crestfallen
Well, you climb Mount Desolation yet again
And you find were all just ordinary men
