Ballade No. 2 Video (MV)

You've roamed the streets
Along it's unpleasantries
Scratched the surface of indignity
And moved on
I have unintencionally
Put you in danger
I've been to you
A dog in the manger
Depriving you of warmth
I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help
When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell
You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world
But you insist on me
For God knows what reason
You've been seen
Confessing yourself to some priest
Cleansing yourself
From the beast
That resides within you
And I
I've accepted
All in me
The deep end of my
Misanthropy
Seems innefable
I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help
When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell
You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world
But you insist on me
For God knows what reason
Beware
And be suspecting
Of all the men misdirecting
Your eyes from the grim actuality
I see now a striking resemblance
Between him and I
And the dive-bar routine doesn't help
When you're trying so hard
To forgive someone
Who's put you through hell
You're too kind
Too gullible
For my sick twisted little world
But you insist on me
For God knows what reason
