Marah - Freedom Park lyrics

Broken bottles, broken gla** $5 baggies on the ground And the evening sky rising high above This forgotten place we found Sirens wail back in the canyons We fled here to escape And I hold your hand and feel you shiver As the winter swirls around your face On this January Sunday We watch the airplanes fly away As they rise up from the airport Above the Meadowlands Highway See their reflections in the river Sliding by us cool and dark Like tiny silver fish They ride the current wish Away from Freedom Park Someday someday We're gonna look down Upon this strip of cold concrete And remember, remember, remember the sound Of broken bottles beneath our feet As we crash through heaven's tollbooth In our fleeting getaway car And pick apart this town Until we're looking down into this Freedom Park We share a Milky Way in quiet As we walk out past the spot Where there used to be a swing set Where a little girl got shot I know you're thinkin about your brother, Richard, too I wish we could bring him back As the wind toots on a liquor bottle Inside a paper sack "Now put your gloves on girl," you hear me say My arm slippin around your waist "Its cold as hell" I hear me say As the dusk becomes this place Then we're listenin' to a fading jet Slip up into the dark And without a word we turn around And walk outta Freedom Park Someday someday We're gonna look down Upon this strip of cold concrete And remember, remember, remember the sound Of broken bottles beneath our feet As we crash through heaven's tollbooth In our fleeting getaway car And pick apart this town Until we're looking down into this Freedom Park
