Shot by Both Sides

                                  This and that, they must be the same

What is legal is just what's real

What I'm given to understand

Is exactly what I steal

I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd

I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd

I was shocked to find what was allowed

I didn't lose myself in the crowd



Shot by both sides

On the run to the outside of everything

Shot by both sides

They must have come to a secret understanding



New offenses always in my nerves

They're taking my time by force

They all sound the same when they scream

They have to rewrite all the books again

As a matter of course



I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd

I wormed my way into the heart of the crowd

I was shocked to find what was allowed

I didn't lose myself in the crowd



Shot by both sides

On the run to the outside of everything

Shot by both sides

They must have come to a secret understanding



Why are you so edgy Kid?

Asks the man with the voice

One thing follows another

You live and learn, you have no choice



(Whispered)

I didn't lose myself to the crowd

I didn't lose myself to the crowd

I didn't lose myself to the crowd

But I wormed my way

But I wormed my way

But I wormed my way



Shot by both sides

I don't ask who's doing the shooting

Shot by both sides

We must have come to a secret understanding
