Stay Clear

Lyrics

[Verse]
On the corner, life's shorter, truthless,
Chasing shadows, pipe dreams, ruthless,
Dust in the pockets, minds astray,
Caught in a haze, night's just a grey.

[Verse 2]
Cops lurking, paranoia creeping,
Soul's sinking, while they're sleeping,
Pitch-black alley, same ol' story,
Lost in the smoke, ain't no glory.

[Chorus]
Steer from the poison, man's own trap,
Lost in a high, can't find the map,
Mind's in the gutter, heart in the dark,
Save yourself before you lose the spark.

[Verse 3]
Crack house parties, dance with the devil,
Needles and spoons, life's disheveled,
Friends turn ghosts, shadows on the street,
Glassed-out eyes, retreat after retreat.

[Verse 4]
Mothers wail, fathers break,
Dreams torn down, all at stake,
Pitch in for relief, it’s but a ruse,
Temporary peace, eternal bruise.

[Chorus]
Steer from the poison, man's own trap,
Lost in a high, can't find the map,
Mind's in the gutter, heart in the dark,
Save yourself before you lose the spark.
