This Could Be Anywhere In The World



Lyrics

This town has it's 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
Im sinking
Wont 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

Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts(ghosts) from broken homes(homes)
Because this city, this city is haunted
And there's no hope(hope)
Left for these souls(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
I stare in amazement,
I cant 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

Because the city, the city is haunted,
By ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes)
Because this city, this city is haunted
There's no hope (hope)
Left for these souls (souls)

Our steps seal fate
Our steps seal fate
This is our celebration
Come join the lost souls
This is our celebration
Come join the lost souls

The city, the city is haunted
Oh,walk with us
Oh,damn,walk with us

The city, the city is haunted, by ghosts(ghosts)
From broken homes(homes)
Because this city, this city is haunted.
There's no hope(hope)
Left for these souls(souls)
