so it's back to town again where all my friends fear they've got no friends

the walls are painted and stenciled

it reads "no more prisons" on sidewalks bare

up to reach a crest

with each footstep

without arrogance

oh i've encountered you a time or two now

and you could use some rest but you don't know how

if they could see what you believe

they'd be like you instantly

so it's back to the porch again where all my friends drink til darkness ends

and pass the labor pool potentials

they read "homes not jails" on boarded shells

up to reach a crest

with each footstep

without arrogance

oh i've encountered you a time or two now

and you could use some rest but you don't know how

if they could see what you believe

they'd be like you instantly

although this town may prove

to change slow your ways still

matter the same
