Perfect camera angles Make normal people Act like fools Actor Trading foodstamps For cigarrettes Under streetlamps Long broken I have a fix Whispering from my pocket Why should I deny her? I found a place to hide Torn rotted rusted Walls of cinder block I am sure all the bridges crossing here Are burnt unto ash Carried to the oceans What used to be a window Is shattered o'er the sea Birds dive and soar in the fog Cement monuments Knee scraped asphalt I could cry out to the sky Do you watch me god? Go about my day Do you want me? Am I not poor and naked in thine eyes Then pour out your mercy upon me dear heaven Remove me from my earthly plight

Perfect camera angles Make normal people Act like fools Actor Trading foodstamps For cigarrettes Under streetlamps Long broken I have a fix Whispering from my pocket Why should I deny her? I found a place to hide Torn rotted rusted Walls of cinder block I am sure all the bridges crossing here Are burnt unto ash Carried to the oceans What used to be a window Is shattered o'er the sea Birds dive and soar in the fog Cement monuments Knee scraped asphalt I could cry out to the sky Do you watch me god? Go about my day Do you want me? Am I not poor and naked in thine eyes Then pour out your mercy upon me dear heaven Remove me from my earthly plight
