We dance with our demons to the sound of the pa**ing pavement
Footholds dig into the backs we stood on
When we were ambitiously youthful
Hum along to all the broken songs sung
Of the infinite loss of a place to call home
Of a chance to leave a mark
Digging our graves with the same hands
Used to climb out of the towns were meant to die in
To push away our beds we can never fall asleep in
Tracing the claw marks with our fingertips
Upon everything we've ever let go of
We'll take and take until the hand that feeds
Has been chewed away
This world owes us everything
Their disappointment looks so promising seen through highway eyes
