lyrics

You’ve got a choice – you could leave or stand your ground
Asphalt killed the grass and the mud was all they found
And they’re scraping their soles, ‘cause apathy is the stain on the rug

And you remember – trying to find a foothold in city life
Shed suburban skin; and avert your eyes to the knife fights
And they’re beating back your dreams, ‘cause they all remain smug
They’re squatting in your dream, ‘cause poverty is the hole you dug

Chorus:
Well you can take me back; take me back into your arms.
Or you can give me up; give me up. Sound the alarms
Where will I go so I finally feel free?
The poison is spreading, killing my community

The everyday drama – a black cavity that eats away at pleasantries
Threats and profanity, they permeate the air that we breathe
And they’re knocking down the targets that shine a little bit too bright
And they’ve made you a target; the bird of peace has flown tonight

Chorus x 2
