Lyrics

[Verse]
Needle hits the vein pain begins to fade
Chasing that first high gone and out of sight
Bodies cold and pale odin’ every night
Whispers in the streets dealers lurking in the shade

[Verse 2]
Something's gotta give can't keep living this way
Families cryin' out lost in the decay
Synthetic death in every corner every alleyway
Numbin' out the truth till’ it all fades to gray

[Chorus]
How did we get here who can break this chain
Falling through the cracks drownin' in the rain
Land of broken dreams wrapped in a deadly stain
Echoes in the dark screaming out in vain

[Verse 3]
Hope buried deep under layers of deceit
Cold hands clutching tight poison at their feet
Searching for a savior in a chemical retreat
Can't run from the monster thrive on defeat

[Bridge]
Politicians talk but they never understand
Lives slipping through fingers countless tragedies unmanned
Burying the bodies on this desolate command
Generation fading gone in a sleight of hand

[Chorus]
How did we get here who can break this chain
Falling through the cracks drownin' in the rain
Land of broken dreams wrapped in a deadly stain
Echoes in the dark screaming out in vain
