Walked miles today
In your shoes
You kept your socks
Yours to choose
Sat and contemplated
The edge of the curb
Simple step down, gutterbound
Elemental, yet absurb
Kisses and makeup
Covering a world of sins
Crazy times call for crazy moves
You have no idea about the outs and ins
You just hope for the best
But nobody wins, nobody wins, nobody wins.
Talked with a wise man
Unbroken, but torn
He hadn’t a clue
Why, what he was born
Visited a temple
Heard the big bell
Sang with the choir
In a beautiful hell
The little streets and the little ways
Open to the plazas bland
We’re going somewhere, I believe
Let go of my hand
Kisses and makeup
Covering a world of sins
Crazy times call for crazy maneuvers
You have no idea about the outs and ins
You just hope for the best
But nobody wins, nobody wins, nobody wins.
