After Arguments

Death threats and guarded borders
 Bedpans and doctors orders
 Move on and leave the weak behind
 Back stabs and painted on smiles
 It's easier to die admired
 From here there is no turning back
 Fall out of focus
 Arguments end where you leave them
 What's it take to be satisfied
 You battle your progress
 Arguments fend for themselves
 And no one else
 I've been shot down too many times
 I guess I blame myself
 For targets I can't defend
 Punishment will never fit the crime
 Well should I go ahead with this
 If I could go ahead at all
 I'd be more confident
 If you'd admit you're wrong
 Do I need to chalk your lines
 Victims precede the crime
 You're blaming yourself next time
 We'll take turns to cover the tracks that we leave behind
 You use me to waste your time
 Your grudges carry themselves just fine
 Regrets, I take yours if you'll take mine
 A fair trade for lightning bolts, landmines and genocide
 Unplug the phone
 I need it quiet
 All you have left
 Is all you've held on to
 Don't care anymore
 No reason to fight
 I'll scream with my last breath
 "I'm all, I'm all
 I'm alright"
 I'm alright
 I'm alright
 I'm alright
 "We're all here waiting, where should we go?"
 White boy start your own KKK
 You look like you're good for nothing anyway
 Just like your parents before you
 And just like your faceless neighborhood
 I know that I'm the one
 I feel just like Chaka Khan
 If it's not for me, it can't be right for anyone
 I blame the cynics and the sun
 Goodnight
 Goodnight
 Goodnight
 Goodnight
 Goodnight
