E-Town Suicide City

Destroy our barriers and burn our hives
The darkened places where our children hide
At first depression was forced upon us
And now it is the air we breathe

The suffering that is contagious
And spreads from soul to soul
A lifestyle that is outrageous
The lacking of both purpose and goal

Their smiles don't reach their empty eyes
Our words don't fill their empty lives
Standing on the side with such exhaustion
With a soundtrack of breaking glass
Departed for eternity
At last your wounded souls are free
While the rest of us are left in mourning
Forced to live with things unsaid

The question is "where are the rest of us"?
They're dying somewhere without hope or trust
So many lives and so much time is wasted
Forgetting that your eyes are closed

Strolling through the core of suicide
Through darkened places where our children hide
I witness scars that go much deeper
The product of this brave new world

Their smiles don't reach their empty eyes
Our words don't fill their empty lives
Standing on the side with such exhaustion
With a soundtrack of breaking glass
Departed for eternity
At last your wounded souls are free
While the rest of us are left in mourning
Left behind with our regret

Lives alone without owners
The lives that nobody wants
And separation unites us
No matter how alone we are

Their smiles don't reach their empty eyes
Our words don't fill their empty lives
Standing on the side with such exhaustion
With a soundtrack of breaking glass
Departed for eternity
At last your wounded souls are free
Still remembered with their footstept faded
And we will never forget
