PAVEMENT Lyrics

I walk around this brutal city

Broken glass adorns the streets

I look for things on the ground

I reach out my hand, for anything

I rip it back and I end up with nothing

Except for shards of glass in my fist

An empty husk, I still feel the hunger

No opportunity except for taking a risk

There is nothing to my name

I lead an empty life

I wait for the offering to come

Too bad they fucking lied

And every single time I try to make it on my own

They tell me I should die

In this city I'm surrounded by walls

This is all just human invention

A straight line, a wide road

Make cars go, make cars go

I refuse to participate in this fucked up excuse for a place to live

The world outside is uninhabitable

The only thing that I can do is die cold and alone

How do you expect me to live

When I'm surrounded by pavement

How do you expect me to live

When I'm surrounded by pavement

How do you expect me to live

When I'm surrounded by pavement

How do you expect me to live

When we're surrounded by pavement

How do you expect me to live (We created a prison for ourselves)

When I'm surrounded by pavement (Pavement is everything)

How do you expect me to live (We created a prison for ourselves)

When I'm surrounded by pavement (Pavement is everything)

How do you expect me to live (We created a prison for ourselves)

When I'm surrounded by pavement (Pavement is everything)

How do you expect me to live (We created a prison for ourselves)

When I'm surrounded by pavement (Pavement is everything)
