choking on the concrete

Greg Holden

Sorry Iââ?¬â?¢m not out tonight, my pockets feel like old
Iââ?¬â?¢ve got nothing I can offer you as I sit here in the cold
And itââ?¬â?¢s a story Iââ?¬â?¢ve been telling for longer than I know
Where did all my riches go

An inquest I am scared of cause I donââ?¬â?¢t want to know
And Iââ?¬â?¢ve been walking off my worries
Hoping they wonââ?¬â?¢t follow me round and round and round
But they always find me, and I said why wonââ?¬â?¢t you leave me alone
Why wonââ?¬â?¢t you leave me alone

Iââ?¬â?¢m terrified of answers so I choose just not to ask
Surely everything is easier when you leave it in the past
And I know that I wonââ?¬â?¢t be waking almost every single night
Dripping wet with deep regret locked in this sadness fight

And I am falling faster to the ground
Punched at every corner with my arms securely bound
And I am waiting for existence to hold me by the hand
Explain that allââ?¬â?¢s not lost for me and make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand

My panic gets the upper hand as it tackles with my breath
And I can see this is no playground fight itââ?¬â?¢s a battle to the death
And I am choking on the concrete with my face pressed to the floor
The bastards wonââ?¬â?¢t defeat me, canââ?¬â?¢t you hear me scream for more

And I am falling faster to the ground
Punched at every corner with my arms securely bound
And I am waiting for existence to hold me by the hand
Explain that allââ?¬â?¢s not lost for me and make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand that I am free
Make me understand
