Wrong outweighs right
Living in a twilight world
All good and evil is
Shadowed to the discerning eye
Pinballing my way
Through everyday
Trying my best not to die
I break my own heart
When failure consumes me
But it's my only guide
Still, I tell myself I'm ok
But we all know
That's the biggest lie
And if it's death that I'm seeking
I know I can't lose
For everyday it draws nigh
The struggle to be good
Surrounded by evil is so real
A messed up life is all I can offer
And hope my wrongs
Don't outweigh my rights
All good and evil is
Shadowed to the discerning eye
Pinballing my way
Through everyday
Trying my best not to die
I break my own heart
When failure consumes me
But it's my only guide
Still, I tell myself I'm ok
But we all know
That's the biggest lie
And if it's death that I'm seeking
I know I can't lose
For everyday it draws nigh
The struggle to be good
Surrounded by evil is so real
A messed up life is all I can offer
And hope my wrongs
Don't outweigh my rights
