Lyrics:

i heard you got robbed last week

did you know i got shot last night?

it's like dependency on a game called hearsay

you hear it said but did you hear it right?

so i was walking the bricks in my front yard

they're uneven and cracking with age

i made an attempt to arrange them perfectly

but when i got done they wouldn't fit into place

and i can't say when

i plan on giving up

i'm trying to think

don't know when it will end

i heard a rumor you went on a trip

did you know i just got back?

i had a chance to think while i was away

i pointed fingers of blame

until they were pointing at me

so i rode my temper until i heard the water

but i hit a fence that was chained and barred

i looked and tried to find another way in

that's when i finally realized

that i'd been trying too hard
