My friend called just the other day

Packed it up he won't be back this way

It's not your heart but the spirit they break

There's only so much a small town boy can take

See the eyes of the countless masses

Drinking life from the empty glasses

Chorus:

No more victims

No more lies

Ne sheer heart attacks

No more empty promises

No more lookin' back

I came here loaded searching for the dream

But nothing is ever easy as it seems

I thought I got closer to it every day

But every day it just got so far away

See all the faces paled

Shot to hell when the system failed

Chorus

I thought I could take all the shit in grind

And stand much more pain

But see all those dead end wishes

Eats away at the brain

Solo, chorus
