Acceptable Losses
Main street's empty in the evening chill From courthouse tower to griffin mill Small signs of winter come 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 thorugh my veins this long lost dream And I tear it apart and burn it all down 'couse 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 fallowed 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 car And I tear it apart and burn it all down 'couse i have to Made a deal with a man at the crossroads who knew where to find you SongtexteAll 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 own at Suicide Brigde 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 soming and suddenly I'm scared Couse you ripped me appart 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 Aus Songtexte Mania
