Bleeding Out

Even if I was lonely, even if I was broke Even if all the dogs in the pound left me notes Sayin? it?s never over, it never ends Grab the guns and the ammo, let us descend To the darkest of prisons, break their defense We will rattle the cages, rules will be bent Oh, remind us our days are all numbered, not spent And peace it comes easy like mist on a ridge Breathing in, breathing out, the salt in my mouth Gives me hope that I?ll bleed something worth bleeding out All the horoscopes tell us to break all our ties To our families and loved ones we leave when we fly To the cities we think we need in our lives Oh, you Manhattan jungle, you tangle our pride Chorus All the buildings, they lean and they smile down on us And they shout from their rooftops words we can?t trust Like you?re dead, you are tired, you?re ruined, you?re dust Oh, you won?t ?mount to nothing, like thanks full of rust But we scream back at them from below on the street All in unison we sing, our time?s been redeemed We are all of the beauty that has not been seen We are full of the color that?s never been dreamed Where nothing we need ever dies Where nothing we need ever dies
