A Bundle of Nerves Tieing Up Loose Ends

Alcoholism 
Hail the old religion 
Resurrected drug addictions 
Perceived Pessimism 
Doesn't matter what's right 
Too concerned with what's wrong 
Doesn't matter what's right 
But how much does it cost? 

Prostitution 
New resolution 
New aged nuns forgiven 
Metaphoric decisive vision 
Does it matter whats right 
When everything seems wrong 
Doesn't matter what you got 
too concerned about the cost 

Breaking blessings 
Succeeded generations 
set ourselves to poverty 
Afraid of failure 
Threatened again 

Malpractice 
Driving drunk 
Guilty justice is a whore 
who doesn't care who she (you know whats)
Doesn't matter what's right 
only what it costs 
Doesn't matter whose wrong 
but whose the boss 

I've tied you up to all these loose ends 
I've lost you in the maze of questionable trends 
All sorts of things to lesson my worth 
Here to pick your brain and see what gets on your nerves 

So what did it cost? 
Was i right again? 
were you wrong? 
what was the cost? 
were you worth all the lies you bought?
