Consequence is no coincidence Hypocrites always wanna play innocent Always want to take it to the full-out extent Always want to make it seem like good intent Never want to face it when it's time for punishment I know you don't wanna hear my opinion There come many paths, and you must choose one If you don't change, then the rain soon come See, you might win, but you just lost one I said you might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one You might win some, but you just lost one You might win some, but you really lost one You just lost one It's so silly, how come?

What you throw out comes back to you, star Never underestimate those who you scar 'Cause karma, karma, comes back to you hard Can't hold God's people back that long The chain of Shaitan wasn't made that strong Trying to pretend like your word is your bond But until you do right, all you do will go wrong Some might mistake this for just simple song Some don't know what they have 'til it's gone Even when you're gone, you can still be reborn From a night can arrive a sweet dawn Now, some might listen and some might shun Some may think that they've reached perfection Look closely, you'll see what you've become 'Cause you might win, but you just lost one You might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one Said you might win, but you just lost one I said you might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one I said you might win, but you just lost one I said you might win some, but you just lost one Might win some, but you just lost one I said you might win, but you just lost one I said you might win You might win some, but you really lost one You just lost one It's so silly, how come?
