This Town

Well I used to have friends in this town
But they’re gone now
I used to know the words to this song
But they’re gone
How could we have strayed?
How could we have strayed?

Yeah I used to have friends in this town
But they’re gone now

Well I started my life in this town
But it’s gone now
The white picket fence and the lawn
Yeah, they’re gone
Tell me what remains
Tell me what remains

Yeah I used to have friends in this town
But they’re gone now

Toss me through the waterfall
Push me in the lake
They can give you the world
Yeah but they take, they take, they take
Oh

I made my way through this town til they tore down
I had the sun at the dawn, but they’re gone
What could we have saved?
What could we have saved?

Yeah I used to have friends in this town
But they’re gone now

Toss me through the waterfall
Push me in the lake
They can give you the world
Yeah but they take, they take, they take
Oh

When you fight so hard just to give them back
All the lives you let them once attack
But we never saw the change
We made the path we made
The only game we played
So how could we have strayed?
Oh

Toss me through the waterfall
Push me in the lake
They can give you the world
Yeah but they take, they take, they take
Oh

I used to have friends in this town
But they’re gone now
I used to know words to this song
But they’re gone
Tell me what remains
