You walk down the street

Dare me to look

Playing the game by primitive rules

What went so wrong

That both of us care

Who wins this dispute?

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

You've conquered a square

Five by five feet

Won with your stare

It's fucking cement

Okay, I give up

The battle is yours

What's next, half a block?

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

Things have become insane

When all you'll fight for is a piece of sidewalk

Do you keep score?

Do you look back and count victories

When things start feeling hopeless?

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe


[Instrumental interlude]

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe

It's hard to believe
