rarely at least

is it right to carry hope

when you've hurt somebody so badly?

in this town

there are more malefactors than saints on the ground

and the ones that hurt the most never get the final word

or rarely

at least

is it right to carry on

when you've torn apart another human being's bond?

and in this town

things change as quickly as they move around

and the ones that hurt the most never change or move around that fast

it seems

but the lies in the walls aren't breaking anybody's falls

and the things i try to tell myself are sounding hollow

all the pieces are out of order

and getting chased right down to the corners

you never win when you've won by taking the easy way
