Sleeping with the Light On

It's a world ruled by distress,
You rearrange your future using hindsight,
A bunch of failures trying to measure success,
And we each have our own version of what is right, And I've been burned by trust,
And I know I'm not the only one,
But guilt is just like rust, If only the bullet could fire the gun.

Blame just fits any fool that will wear its crown, Trust is a babysitter that burns your house to the ground, Yeah we're all in this alone, Sleeping with the light on.

You've got to wonder what to do with friends like these,
They've seen the movie so they judge the book by its cover,
But at least you can get rid of your enemies,
They love your wife as much as they would love to fuck your lover,
For every stargazer that seems so indifferent,
But he wants that star for his own planet's sun,
But you cannot forgive the innocent, The bullet cannot shoot the gun.

What's the difference between the man on the stand and the jury, What's the difference between the killer's need and the victim's fury, Yeah we're all in this alone, Sleeping with the light on.

Afraid of the pain that we milk from the pleasure, We grow in increments too small to measure,
Till we're moving in light years away from each other,
Till we're so far away all we can do is move further.

He goes to bed thinking; just to wake up dreaming, Anonymous virtue and dead action scenarios,
We start out believing just to end up scheming,
And everybody is sure of what nobody knows,
And every petty judge rewrites the moral of the story,
The fashion of accident becomes the fashion's design,
And we butcher the details just to make them gory, And when we've ignored every boundary we then draw the line.

I guess we'll spend eternity in this limbo of sustained objections, Ironically afraid of innocuous
content more than killer infections, Yeah we're all in this together, Living in the naked weather.

Why must we be so alone?
