Lyrics
In this wasteland, ash and dust Hunger screams, in rust we trust Through dimmed alleys, search for crusts Life's cruel joke, on me it thrusts No silver lining, dreams combust Empty pockets taunt and thrust Broken glass, a shattered trust In shadows lurk, society's bust Daily grind, soul's corrosion In the rubble, lost my notion Work's a myth, a blurred illusion Chased by poverty's intrusion In the smog, the factories groan Bleak horizons, all I've known A world of metal, grit, and bone Where hope's a ghost, and love's a loan [Chorus] Scratchin' by, the gray unknown WIth dirtied hands and hearts of stone Faded pictures, tarnished times Dreams are currency that never buys An empty belly's hollow roars Turns a man into a beast that paws On every corner, dealers prey A quick escape, but no one really stays Cracks in pavement, tales untold Desperate strides, grief takes its hold Echoes of promises, now just lies In this wasteland where each dream dies Hands to the cold sky, asking why Heartbeat in tempo with the city's sigh Plastic smiles, so paper thin Futures sold, where do I begin The neon gods, they shine so cruel Another puppet, society’s fool [Chorus] Marching on, through endless drone A social number, flesh and bone Grit my teeth, through the city's din Shattered dreams, where do I fit in? Grey-skied morning, luck's worn thin Jobs are fairytales, a forgotten hymn [Verse] The alley's breath, it stinks of plight Men like shadows, lost to night
