On the kindness of strangers
I've come to depend
For a shoulder to lean
or a hand to lend
This world's too hard
to not have someone break my fall
We climb this world stone by stone
We love each other bone by bone
There are sins for which
one just cannot atone
There's a price we pay
for the places we lay
For putting it all on the line
So far down the only sound
Is something leaving you behind
What if we end just where we begin
Everywhere we go
we have already been
Would you relive the pain
Or would you call it a draw
Nothing at all
All or nothing at all
