Back to Before - "Inside the Crowd"
sneaking around, beneath our morals but it feels sound
naked together, light-footed, not touching real ground
I promise to be there forever, and you blurt out the same
only to destroy my life at end of the game
I see you ..there'll be no escaping either
just wait until you stop to take a breather
the anger awakes tears, dead to the night
you pray and run ramped in a fright
my feet feel light, my head is spinning
I attack my opposition, with no sense of winning
you riot yourself, deep within the mosh
don't deny it for help ..You’re inside a cross
but still lost, there's no saving you now
you turn to me, praying you'll know how
- only turning to a.. POW!
it's only in a crowd, you see who she is
but it's also in a crowd, no one sees what HE gets
how hard he gets it, dragged into the pit
receiving a bigger preaching than that of a little kid
we seem to fiddle with the wrong things
which was the downfall of many strong kings
but as her freedom rings
it's a fearsome pain it brings
he touched what you thought was yours
and she'd proven there WERE unjust whores
- and you end up back to before
ending a story, nothing gory ..just a black eye and bruises
only to prove far less than the best of what a guy loses
and I think of my mother, I'm smothered as she cries
"cheaters never prosper!"
responding - "then why do I want to die!!"
