|
Main street's empty in the evening chill |
|
From courthouse tower to griffin mill |
|
Small signs of winter comes creeping down the hills |
|
I saw your shadow on Jackson St. |
|
where the zombie-eyed kids and the speed-queens meet |
|
It's been a long time running through my veins this long lost dream |
|
And I tear it apart and I burn it all down 'cuz i have to |
|
God gave me permission to do what it takes to find you |
|
All the friends I betrayed all the enemies made in the process |
|
We've all done the same we're just carrying different crosses |
|
I'm feeling no pain baby - it's acceptable losses |
|
This place got dark in the year's that passed |
|
The store-fronts blown I guess nothing lasts |
|
The fighting at the bars still draw wired vengeful crowds |
|
I followed our trail down to Rosewood Park |
|
As the shadows grow tall and the stars come out |
|
Were the backseat lovers used to park their daddy's cars |
|
And I tear it apart and burn it all down 'cuz i have to |
|
Made a deal with a man at the crossroads who knew where to find you |
|
All the friends I betrayed all the enemies made in the process |
|
Our pain feels the same we're just carrying different crosses |
|
It's all in the game baby - it's acceptable losses |
|
They found your car *down* at Suicide Bridge |
|
Where the Johnson twins became newsflash kids |
|
But I know you so much better don't believe you'd call it quits |
|
Now I got an old address and I'm waiting there |
|
In the first light of morning at the fire stairs |
|
I can hear someone's coming and suddenly I'm scared |
|
'Cause you ripped me apart and I ran for my life couse I had to |
|
My heart won't stop bleeding and I'm no longer sure if i want it to |
|
All the friends I betrayed all the enemies made in the process |
|
They're all going down in a accounts of acceptable losses |
|
It's all in the game baby - it's acceptable losses |
