This Could Be Anywhere In The World [Strings cover by Ryan Lawler]
This town has its claws buried in my neck This town it takes life 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, it won't be long Until 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 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 breathe 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 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 all Down, walk with us --
This city, this city is haunted By ghosts (ghosts) from broken homes (homes) Because this city, this city is haunted There's no hope (hope) left for these souls (souls)
