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 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 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 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) 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 This city, this city is haunted Oh, walk with us Oh, down, walk with us 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)
