lyrics

Hey, where did the girls go?
In their pastel blouses getting stoned,
Heading to the Golden Gate,
Hey, where did the car go?
Put the keys down and they're gone,
Can't do anything in my own home.

You see,
And now the,
And now the city's gone,
A broken home,
Pigs everyone,
And now the,
And now the city's gone,
Your broken home,
Pigs everyone.

And the doors are locked so no-one can get in,
They'll pick the locks, break the doors in,
And now I'm scared, and now I'm scared for my life,
I've tried too many times just missing out.

But I don't know where to go,
I don't know where to go.

Now I'm freezing in this cold sense of self,
Rejoices,
And I don't know where to hide.

But I know,
I know the city's gone,
So won't you please,
Just run the gun,
You're running away,
We're running away from ourselves,
And now we know,
Just who to blame.

The doors are locked and the gun is cocked,
It's knife to knife and bullet to bullet,
The doors are locked and the gun is cocked,
And you didn't see any of it,
The doors are locked and the gun is cocked,
It's knife to knife and bullet to bullet,
The doors are locked and the gun is cocked,
And you didn't see any, you didn't see any...

Now I'm trying to see through these bars again,
The tax won't lead on to the streets,
And here comes brainwashed acid days yet again,
Instructional diaries on Super 8.

But we know,
We know the city's gone,
Too many lost,
The safety's off,
I'm breaking up,
I'm breaking towns again,
Just what you know,
You've lost a friend,
You've lost a friend,
You've lost a friend,
You've lost a friend,
You've lost a friend.
