i was made for killing people
i killed your family
i killed a part of me
the one that wanted free
buried beneath your feet
i was made for killing people
i was sent to kill you dead
?? voice inside my head
i found it there inside of me, i saw it through the red fury
still consuming me, i thought i left you dead
'cause i was made for killing people
i killed your other friends
i brought them to their end
i killed your mother too
she said i'm no good for you
i don't wanna kill you don't wanna kill you
i am here because they mean you harm
don't you see my looks, wit, and my charm
camouflaged as someone that you think you could love
sorry but my orders came to me from above
i hope you don't put your trust me
i hope you know that i cannot set you free
the life you're living's not reality
i can kill you dead so you can come with me
because i was made for killing people
i even killed your cat
you better watch your back
i might just take a crack
and you might just fade to black
i dont wanna kill yuo don't wanna kill you

there ain't nothing to drink
i said there ain't nothing to drink
and don't even consider water from the sink
?? ??
and i aint't never seen the blue water come runnin out the sky
well there's a man livin across my street
he and his old lady don't seem very sweet
he yells and calls her names, my buddies tell me he's insane
and i ain't seen no ?? ?? to even think he had half a brain
so here i am here i am
nothing is over

still checkin out the rest of me and watchin out for cops

sailing through suburban scrawl
staring at the homeless in the shopping mall
never get the city smell off the wall
?? and then onto fall
flying in from canada, montreal
i could;ve sworn i had seen alexandria
i called her phone and i got the beep
wonder if she's doing well or if she's onto me
this city speaks to me, it sings me lullabies at night
the wind, it breathes with me, the smoke still hangs around in spite
the road's been kind to me but now the choice is strikingly serene within my psyche
i can see myself and finally stand to leave that shit behind
keep my head down, walk on silently
observe that which denies me, try to curve that silver lining
her song of sleep calls to me
i never thought i could need desperately
the very thing i cant live without
wondering which love i will see on the roundabout
this city speaks to me, it sings me lullabies at night
the wind, it breathes with me, the smoke still hangs around in spite
the road's been kind to me but now the choice is strikingly serene within my psyche
i can see myself and finally stand to leave that shit behind
keep my head down, walk on silently
observe that which denies me, try to curve that silver lining

soldiers marching on mark avenue
infantry from fifth to nine
i don't wanna meet you here
find a frown from ear to ear
politician's face frozen in time
and if it's all a game, the scoreboard has stayed the same
despite what you say
the revolution took its own life
i guess that's how the story goes
but everybody got it wrong
even those who sing the song
can you really blame the ones in charge?
i know it's harder now that trees are coming down
but just look around you
