Alexisonfire — This Could Be Anywhere In The World lyrics

Lyrics

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 sufficates behind darkened skies
The grass is growing
On top of my feet
I’m sinking
Won’t be long
Before i’m too deep too 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 from broken homes
Because this city, this city is haunted
There’s no hope left for these 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 from broken homes
Because this city, this city is haunted
There’s no hope left for these souls
Our steps seal fate
This is our celebration
Come join the lost souls
This city, this city is haunted
Oh! Walk with us, Oh!
Damn! Walk with us!
City, this city is haunted
By ghosts from broken homes
Because this city, this city is haunted
There’s no hope left for these souls
