This Could Be Anywhere In The World

THIS TOWN HAS ITS CLAWS
BURIED IN MY NECK
THIS TOWN - IT TAKES LIVES
WITHOUT MERCY
WITHOUT HATE
The streets are in distress
The sun suffocates behind darkened skies

THE GRASS IS GROWING
ON TOP OF MY FEET
I'M SINKING - WON'T BE LONG
BEFORE I'M TOO DEEP TO RUN
The line-up seems endless
Underneath the salvation signs

WE ARE THE DEAD ONES
WE ARE THE LOST CAUSE
WE ARE THE BEND BEFORE THE BREAK
OUR STEPS SEAL OUR FATE

CHORUS
Because this city,
This city is haunted
By ghosts from broken homes

Because this city,
This city is haunted
There's no hope left for these souls

EVERY STEP I TAKE
I LEAVE A SMALL PIECE OF MYSELF BEHIND
SOON THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT
The cracks in the pavement
Match the cracks in their weathered skin

THE SKY'S A BRICK WALL
THE GROUND'S A JUGGERNAUT
EACH DAY THEY GET A BIT CLOSER
BETWEEN THEM, I AM CAUGHT
As I stare in amazement
I can't believe this is where I live

EVERY BREATH I TAKE
I FEEL MY LUNGS SEAL
THIS BREEZE FEELS MORE LIKE SHARDS OF GLASS
I'M MORE SCARS THAN SKIN

-Chorus-

OUR STEPS SEAL FATE x2

THIS IS OUR CELEBRATION, COME JOIN THE LOST SOULS x2

This city, this city is haunted...

-Chorus-
