The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

This town has its claws

Buried in my neck

This town it takes life without mercy

Without hate

The streets are in distress

The Sun suffocates behind darkened skies

The grass is growing on top of my feet

I'm thinking, it won't be to long until before

I'm too deep to run

The line up seems endless underneath the salvation signs

We are the dead ones

We are the lost cause

We are the bend before the break

Our steps seal our fate

Because this city, this city is haunted by ghosts (ghosts)

From broken homes (homes)

Because this city, this city is haunted

There's no hope (hope) left for these souls (souls)

Every step I take

I leave a small piece

Of myself behind

Soon there will be nothing left

The cracks in the pavement

Match the cracks in their weathered skin

The sky's a brick wall

The ground's a juggernaut

Each day they get a bit closer, between them

I am caught

As I stare in amazement

I can't believe this is where I live

Every breathe I take

I feel my lungs seal

This breeze feels more like shards of glass

I'm more scars than skin

Because this city, this city is haunted by ghosts (ghosts)

From broken homes (homes)

Because this city, this city is haunted

There's no hope (hope) left for these souls (souls)

Our steps seal fate

Our steps seal fate

This is our celebration, come join the lost souls

This is our celebration, come join the lost souls

This city, this city is haunted

Oh, walk with us all

Oh, down, walk with us

Because this city, this city is haunted by ghosts (ghosts)

From broken homes (homes)

Because this city, this city is haunted

There's no hope (hope), left for these souls (souls)
