Life Was Fair - Only Crime

It doesn’t make a sound

Ripping through the pages of another time

And sometimes it’s hard enough creating versions in my mind

Like an engine hitting failure

Broken down from the night before

If there’s a chance to get it right, one thing worth waiting for

Like where I’ve been before

Kept out of sight but not out of life

Still swept aside and shackled by these penalties and rhymes

So just let me go

And form all the lives I never could

When it evens out in time will we be satisfied?

They should’ve been ashamed

Reaching back for the life we left behind

If there’s a function or release why can’t I find the time?

Just a passing observation

Without a trace of banality

If there’s a low road to surrender can it just be me?

Like where I’ve been before

Kept out of sight but not out of life

Still swept aside and shackled by these penalties and rhymes

So just let me go

And form all the lives I never could

When it evens out in time will we be satisfied?

So pacified

Like life was fair

Kept out of sight left with all despair

Like where I’ve been before

Kept out of sight but not out of life

Still swept aside and shackled by these penalties & rhymes

So just let me go

And form all the lives I never could

When it evens out in time will we be satisfied?
