Song Description

The lyrics look at the way life creates regret from broken relationships and alienation.

Lyrics

you see them smiling at each other
and you know perfectly well
that this is not for you

our scars have unexpected power
to make our past seem real
but in the end, we all have
nothing to lose

(chorus)
i've seen you walking down the street
with your head down and your shuffling feet
like pilgrims at the temple of regret
like pilgrims at the temple of regret

he makes very small specific gestures
the liar must first know the truth
she twists her fingers in her curls

clouds are drifting in the valley
it's a mistake to expect
too much of justice in this world

(chorus)

(bridge)
you wonder: is there any world other
than the picture of the world
you carry in your heart?

(solo)

(chorus)
