We Will Still Need A Song Lyrics

Lyric discussion by improvised 

Cover art for We Will Still Need A Song lyrics by Hawksley Workman

Hawksley wrote this song after one night of drinking. He was feeling really terrible about the world around him, and told his friend that he was done with music. The friend turned to him and said "Yeah, but we will still need a song" This seems to be a song about pushing past feeling apathetic, and creating something beautiful.
