A Conversation with Concrete

I couldn't do it all again

I couldn't be a broken wall

I could not stand to take those blows

Well, they would pay to watch me fall

I could not stand the static sound

Couldn't take the noise they made

I will never apologize for nothing

I will never be a slave

I'll still walk home in the rain

Convince myself these streets talk

I feel alive again

I will never stop

And if you come for me

And if you come for me

Then you'll see

When the sirens came around

The cops came out to play

You were bold and you were brash

With things I'll never say

Well look how they appoint a king

Misplacing guilt for blame

They say they'll protest

And still, put crosses through their name

I'll still walk home in the rain

Convince myself these streets talk

I feel alive again

I will never stop

And if you come for me

And if you come for me

Then you'll see

It's okay, it's okay

He's on the phone

He said, "Why couldn't you just leave this alone?"

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

It's okay, it's okay!

He's on the phone!

He said, "Why couldn't you leave this alone?"

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

I'll still walk home in the rain

Convince myself these streets talk

I feel alive again

I will never stop

And if you come for me

And if you come for me

Then you'll see

It's okay, it's okay

He's on the phone

He said, "Why couldn't you leave this alone?"

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

Old wounds heal slow, but you'll never know

(I think I will do all of this again, and then...)

It's okay, it's okay!

He's on the phone!

He said, "Why couldn't you leave this alone?"
