Elm Street

Last night they shot a man on Elm Street
Half past ten o' clock
I heard the shots ring in the distance
As their lights cut through the dark
Last night they shot a man on Elm Street
Left him laying on his side
They tried to hide between the street lights
But were fighting for our lives

It's in his eyes the fear that tries to keep us all alive
Each night he dies feel the burden grow and grow each time

The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
Police in line
Hide behind their guns and weak disguises
The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
The rage brings light
Burning as we fight to save our lives

Last night they shot a man on Elm Street
At night I see his face
He doesn't cower in the moonlight
An angel takes his place

It's in his eyes the fear that tries to keep us all alive
Each night he dies feel the burden grow and grow each time

The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
Police in line
Hide behind their guns and weak disguises
The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
The rage brings light
Burning as we fight to save our lives

We won't forget the names this time
This time
this time

In our divide America can grow and grieve this time

The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
Police in line
Hide behind their guns and weak disguises
The streets at night
Filling with the shouts and protest signs
The rage brings light
Burning as we fight to save our lives
