AThis town has its claws buried in my neck
This town, it takes lives, without mercy, without hate
C#m The streets are in distress
C#m The sun suffocates behind darkened skies

AThe grass is growing on top of my feet
I'm sinking, won't be long, before I'm too deep to run
C#m The line up seems endless
C#m Underneath the salvation signs.

AWe are the dead ones, we are the lost cause
We are the bend before the break. Our steps seal our fate.

Because thiC#ms city, this city isA haunted
By F#mghosts (ghosts) from broken hAomes (hBomes)
Because thiC#ms city, this city isA haunted
And there's no F#mhope (hope) left for these sAouls (sBouls).

AEvery step I take I leave a small piece
Of myself behind. Soon there will be nothing left.
C#m The cracks in the pavement,

AThe sky's a brick wall. The ground's a juggernaut
Each day they get a bit close. Between them, I am caught.
C#m I stare in amazement,
C#m I can't believe this is where I live.
