Alpha Dog

It seems this ghost
Will get the best of me
My lungs collapse under the pressure of
Fear and fate
Scratch out my eyes
Give me a break
This simple plot
Is all it will take
These are the ghosts that we run from
These roads that we walk on are not safe
(ARE NOT SAFE!)
I feel them gaining on me
Down these darkened streets
Can't find my fucking way home
They let the wolves run free tonight
I can fight them off
I swear I won't give up and as they attack
I feel the chill of the sweat
Dripping down my back
Oh my God!
Will I ever see the rising sun
I grit my teeth
And bite my tongue
As I pick them off
One by one
These are the ghosts that we run from
These roads that we walk on are not safe
(ARE NOT SAFE!)
I feel them gaining on me
Down these darkened streets
Can't find my fucking way home
We're alone
On this search
They stomp on the dreams
Of the broken
And the cursed
Live and love
Have fun
Before the smoke
Blocks
Out
The
Sun
PAY ATTENTION TO THE WALLS!
THEY DRIP BLOOD FROM SOLDIERS LOST!
This is our final resolution
So beware of the prophets present allusion
Brace yourself as we all awake
And keep sane
As they tarnish your name
