You've got all your friends on fire tonight chasing down a subway
I've got all my friends above me in a golden killers frenzy
We've got all this time and all this liquor, let's drink till we are numb
My fingers can't seem to find the frets to speak to you anymore
I've lost my mind but not my will, I am bitter but in love
I have complained about religion and all the emptiness above
but there's been no attempt to save my self and no attempt to fly
I can justify these circles by the envy in your eye
Now underneath the pavement there is this killer on the prowl
He's got all these good intentions but his lover left him sour
He climbs up from the sewer and screams, I hate this fucking town
I have been bitten by the concrete now I'm stuck here on the ground
While you ran off to Cleveland and you've found a better life
Where the mystery's productive but the concrete is so polite
I am surrounded by the ocean but I've never been to sea
But I would hold my breath forever just to see
So this girl walks through the front door and she's broken by the scent
she says it stinks like all you people left your loneliness to vent
See I too came here to relieve myself of everything that I am not
of everything I have to be for ten hours at my job
But now I find I'm disappointed by the quiet of the jukebox
because I was hoping you'd be here and it would be too loud to even talk
I'd have to kick and scream and lose myself in all you’re hollow smiles
But I will hold it all together for the while
All we are, has bound us, to all we are, forevermore
All we are, has bound us, to all we are, forevermore
All we are, has bound us, to all we are, forevermore
All we are, has bound us, to all we are, forevermore
