Somewhere between Eden and North Utopia. Somewhere
When lies substitution
A new twist on our old solution
No cause, there is no choice
They took your freedom away
The new rights gotta keep you guessing
A quick close with a signed confession
No rights this fight
Is how you're gonna pay
A child's tear from a broken heart
Another family's ripped apart
And these streets are empty
Down in this Uniontown
Just don't let them catch you at night

Nobody gets to have it all
The lucky ones only take the fall
It's a game, they picked your name
And now you have been had
You're just a player in a house of cards
Pleading guilty to a lesser charge
You're no good for anyone
When you are doing time

It's hard enough to stay alive
Eighteen to twenty-five
Another town is locked into a slow decay
When all its young men they're locked away


~I've lied to those I love
I'd medicate but it ain't never enough
No tears for the lives I've wrecked
I've lost my self respect
 
black cats and silver bells
hard to tell
wish them well
while they burn in hell
locked in a cell
for what I can't tell
