Alexisonfire This Could Be Any City In the World 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 suffocates behind darkened skies

The Grass is growing
on top of my feet
i'm sinking
wont be long
before im 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
and 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 grounds 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 scar than skin

because this city, this city is haunted
by ghosts(ghosts)
from broken homes(homes)
because this city, this city is haunted
and 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, oh
drown, walk with us

because this city, this city is haunted
by ghosts(ghosts)
from broken homes(homes)
because this city, this city is haunted
and there's no hope(hope)
left for these souls(souls)
