Everything Costs - Radical Face

Dreams, like coins down a well

Till I realized I was dumb for believin'

To the bird with no flight

The skies don’t ever offer respite

So I wandered off

And went to fill the halls of my shadow

But everything costs

Proof was etched into the backs of my hands

I heard you say that you’d lost, you’d lost, you’d lost your way

But I don’t think you had much to lose, that house was never built for you

And I ain’t gonna hang my head for them, for them

And I ain’t gonna let them paint the truth with sin

And I ain’t gonna tell you it’s okay but at the end of the day

You were just something they’d blame

Face, pressed into your hands

Couldn’t tell if you were crying or laughing

They both sound the same

when you ain’t got no skin in the game

So I took up the fight

And the roaring in my head was like the thunder

Until I uncurled my fists

And allowed myself to not give a damn

I heard you say that we’d lost, we’d lost, we’d lost, we’d lost our way

But I don’t think we had much to lose that path was never built for us

And I ain’t gonna hang my head for them, for them

And I ain’t gonna let them paint the truth with sin

And I ain’t gonna tell you it’s okay but at the end of the day

You were just something they’d blame
