these streets are filled with dust and fear
with memories and hope, with silence and noise
can you see the ghosts? i can almost hear their screams
it feels like dying to stay alive, feels like everyone else is fine
it changes nothing, the dreams are always the same
it's a cold night in a cold town
monday 7.15 a.m. you just try to look away
i feel sick, this place hurts
friday 12.30 p.m.
there is a silent tiered face inbetween laughter and drunken conversations
confront with discontent: the music is turned louder
these friday nights make you feel alive
these weeks make them feel alright
who the fuck is right? it changes nothing
the nightmares are always the same
it's a cold night and in a cold town
