pull out your bags
we're leaving town
you can't let your plans
keep you around
headstrong, you bought into
a world of advantage and contempt, you knew
seen you since then
but i can't remember when.
America... i spit at your feet
for selling lives to pour concrete
but the shark baits spread again
no more hanging on the rails for you
help you, they demand
well i'm doing the best i can.v i knew the one who made you shake
shake the shelter
i knew the one who wrote your book
of brittle memory
