lyrics

they told you "we're not gonna die"
keep your head on the pillow and not in the markets of death that wait for us out there
you said that I needed to cry and movies can't move me and real life is chewing you up
but gone as it is I feel alarmed, feel aligned
you said that I needed a life
my posters are peeling and real life is feeling the burn
and buildings are up in the sky
from new york toronto feels like an hour to fly
but gone as it is i feel lost, feel alive
