• Son of this Town

I'm a son of this town hear the ship engines hum
While a train's rumbling over the rails
The factory dyed the sky grey by the river, I prayed
But it washed all my dreams away

We jumped head first into the river and were dragged by the flow
We were young kids that wanted to conquer the world
A trip on a rollercoaster without safety blets
Pedal to the metal on that rail down to hell
That rail down to hell

I'm a son of this town hear the ship engines hum
While a train's rumbling over the rails
The factory dyed the sky grey by the river, I prayed
But it washed all my dreams away

I got liquored up with life an puked up on the floor
No limits, no rules, my head against the wall
I sipped the blood, I licked the wounds of a bleeding town
I was a ticking bomb, a loaded gun, ready to shoot you down
To shoot you down

I'm a son of this town hear the ship engines hum
While a train's rumbling over the rails
The factory dyed the sky grey by the river, I prayed
But it washed all my dreams away

When I walk through the alleys of forgotten dreams
I still hear my mother crying I still hear the angels sing
A symphony of desperation, isolation and pain
And tho one thing that I have learned is crime don't pay
Crime don't pay

X2
I'm a son of this town hear the ship engines hum
While a train's rumbling over the rails
The factory dyed the sky grey by the river, I prayed
But it washed all my dreams away
