we were left here
empty and ready
to fall into decay
used to be so much life
and in the dark,
there were bright lights

the home we built
caught on fire and
burned to the ground
there's just a skeleton
a naked foundation that
used to hold our dreams

we were torn down
condemned to demolition
we tied the knot to
the chain on the wrecking ball
we crumbled
under...

the roads we pioneered
are long overgrown
but we still know
the way by heart
a rhythmic pounding
from my very bones
