we're burning out like candle light
our hearts are there
but we lost the will to fight
everyone just packed up
and left us all behind
I think this IV's broken
just please break out the arsenic
I'm so tired and drained
after all these undelivered hopes
I catch the last bus to downtown
before the streetlights turn on
I leveled with this leveled city
poverty and instability
but deep down so pretty
laying down on concrete
is not a field of grass to me
I'm not like you all
I have hopes and I have dreams
It's kinda sad knowning one day
I'll be laying in my bed
one of you will be on a stretcher
crossing those city lines
and as I watch the lights dance
across my window sill
I won't know it was you that
those sirens were singing for
those sirens were singing for
those sirens were singing for...(etc)
I'm really excited about this song. sometime I'll play it at some open mic when i don't have to fucking work or otherwise. I had this other verse and chorus in there but i'm not sure if it flows well with the rest of it.
we tried the best we could
to get the hell out of here
by drinking ourselves to rest
our weary burnt out minds
that we rapped against brick walls
I really want to recover
what we used to be about
aimless nights and singing songs
by solitary garage light
it gives up the entire story too quick and doesn't have to do with the fact that one of these days our self destructive ways are gonna fuck us up hardcore (says the man who wants a forty of pbr everynight). I duno. tell me what you think I guess. I'll have it recorded sometime this week. or next. depending.Current Mood:  depressed Current Music: Yoko Kano - Piano solo |
