(Verse 1)
Walking down the street
Down across the pavement
Is a punk without a cause
Caught up in unpaid payment
Scraping through the week
Lost in endless poverty
But it's not his fault
Just living how he was brought up to be
Getting yelled at as a kid
For not helping enough around the place
Told to get a job
Only twelve with this kind of crap shoved in his face
But looking at him now
Down across the lonely street
Seeing him in a light
That society brought us up to see and

(Chorus)
(You are my) Worst enemy, you brought me down this far
(You are the) Worst tragedy, you brought us down this far
(You define) No clarity, (I don't)x4 Understand
(You are no) Charity, you take it all but I want more

(Verse 2)
Followed him down the street
To see where I'd be led
Down to the grocery store
And people turned there heads to see
A punk without a cause
Here to steal a buck or two
But what you do not see
Is what borught him down is me and you
Pointing fingers in the dark
Till' he thought that's what he really was
Just scum without morals
Just BECAUSE
We say it every day
Right up to his face
The boy takest it to his heart
That's something you can't erase and

(Chorus)x2
