Lyrics

Those corner kids don't have a clue
They're still waiting to be rescued
They stay and sway, but I know better
This is where I used to roam
I knew a girl who would wear headphones
And bat instead of let me get her
Where a crook could find a cave
Counting trinkets he acquired
And a person could be saved before noon
Where I could hold a flame
To what fueled them to inspire
Every light a burning fire from their room
That's our name in the cement
We use the sidewalk as our canvas
To show if we go, something's forever
There's people living in these trees
Some can go a hundred stories
But somehow there's no sound, just doors and letters
Where a crook could find a cave
Counting trinkets he acquired
And a person could be saved before noon
Where I could hold a flame
To what fueled them to inspire
Every light a burning fire from their room
They act like it's their right
They make it seem as if we've stolen
In the dead of night we're shown the street
They paint those sticks and stones
And make the roads all clean and golden
They bury broken bones beneath their feet
Most who started here have left
It's all in the name of progress
And now this whole crowd is just big spenders
This neighborhood was filled with words
Now everyone here speaks in numbers
So I just reply in notes and measures
Where a crook could find a cave
Counting trinkets he acquired
And a person could be saved before noon
Where I could hold a flame
To what fueled them to inspire
Every light a burning fire from their room
Every light a burning fire from their room
Every light a burning fire from their room
