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
