A prince in practice moans for the attention that he wants But most of this town won't even dignify his ignorance with a response Left to a crowded foster home by a 15-year-old mom Never been held in anyone's arms; when you've never been moved it's really hard to move on A young saleswoman sets up shop when the sun sets She'll make your wildest dreams come true at a price you won't forget The sadly-married set up alibis: no harm, no regret Hoping they meet an angel in bed that can wrestle the devil right out of their heads This city runs fast, no one has time to sit with themselves No time to look into our pain or see the same despair in everyone else It's here, it's there, it's everywhere - tears soak each card the dealer's dealt But time taught me how to see every second as Heaven even though they're perfectly disguised as Hell And I refuse to let past bruises cover the light It ain't all good, but it's all good enough so I know I'm alright Agony is truth: it's our connection to the living I accept it as perfection and keep on existing in the now
