Pole Lights

No need to contemplate
Words merely complicate
With no luck at all
Nothing with which to be down upon
You make it sound so sweet
When you patronize me
I'd welcome that pity
But I guess that chance is gone

You see, I'm the kinda guy
Who walks 'round late at night
And none to my chagrin
For, as I pass underneath
The pole lights in the streets
They all go out

May I take a moment
To re-reevaluate
This situation I'm finding myself in again
Stick to a righteous path
Only to incur the wrath
Of hypocrite assholes
With their condescending snobbery

I'm the kinda guy
Who walks 'round late at night
And none to my chagrin
For, as I pass underneath
The pole lights in the streets
They all go out

Every time that I get to this bridge
It seems you'd rather I slip from the ledge
In spite of dreams
Of the middle where we'd meet
You're just content to watch this mother burn
Will I never learn?

Because I'm the kinda guy
Who walks the streets at night
And none to my chagrin
For, as I pass underneath
The pole lights in the streets
They all go out

Yes, as I pass underneath
Those pole lights in the streets
They all go out
