Running into the darkness, some hurt bad, some really dying
E (022100@1) DAt (xx0232@1)night sometimes it seemed you could hear the whole damn city crying
A (x02220@1) EBlame (022100@1)it on the lies that killed us, blame it on the truth that ran us down

But I hated him, and I hated you when you went away
