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
