Evil Twin

Okay
Like a hammer falling down on a lifetime of love
White teeth chewing on the edge of a Styrofoam cup
Bitterness all crystallized like a plastic chandelier
Never knew so little all the while believing things were so clear
We thought they could be trusted, ah, but it seems it wasn't so
I guess they do what they think is right but it's obvious they don't know
Just when you're broken down then the highway bandits come
Why don't you just pull yourself back up? Well it's easier said than done
From the East to the West
Morning rise, evening rest and the day is gone
With your back to the wall
Hold your head high and tall, point the way on
There's a bird imitating laughter from a window down the street
On the fence, hanging empty bottles of worn out company
Standing up on a park bench now, I'm facing up to the coming storm
The trail's been cold for a while but now it's getting warm
From the South to the North, days are fast, time is short
And the way it is long
As the dark fills the sky, pulls the light from your eyes
Forms a new dawn
