lyrics

Breathe in the putrid smell of a city rotten from the core
Look away from the weak and turn your eyes from the poor
Beggars and thieves pepper the streets, their homes
One big reminder that we're all living this life alone

Don't wait for the train, just run for your lives
-Rest with your hand on your gun and don't close your eyes
Give into the filth and let the rats be your guide
-These tracks lead you nowhere, and it's a lonely ride

As time races by
You lose that twinkle in your eye
Scratching at the surface of where your desperation lies
All the while asking why...am I here?

Don't take my word, as many bad days as there are, there may be good
To live this way and to feel the drain, something sinister must be understood
Surrounded by every little thing you could want, you'll feel so alone
Anesthetize yourself until you realize this place will never be your home


Reckless abandon
Is the name of the game we lose
Shaving years off our lives
With absolutely nothing to show
