lyrics

For every every person you help there's someone else that you hurt.
For every thing that gets better there's something else getting worse
So you embellish your story and you bask in your glory
And you get what you can 'cause there's no reason or hurry
They're ripping out fingernails and chewing up the entrails
And doing all of the things getting by might entail
While some others it seems live in trickle down dreams
And it all comes so easy happy joyous and free
For every person who wins there's someone mad in the street
For every house on the hill ten trampled under their feet
For every blissful high there's a crash or you die
Sometimes it seems like everything that's good has abandoned me
The ocean swallows all the stars explode and fall
The hand that winds the clock has gone to sleep
The eye that watches hell looks the other way
The powerless and blind the crippled and betrayed
They sing and cry and scream
To something that was never there or has long since gone away
