Lyrics

Gunfire in the street

Where we used to meet

Echoes that are beat

When the bass goes 'bomb'

Right over my head

Step over the dead

Remember what you said

Y'know a part of my old life

Is just a waking dream

Well i know what you mean

But that ain't how it seems right here, right now

How can this be real?

I can hardly feel

Anymore

I am trying to see

I am trying to believe

This is not where i should be

I am trying to believe

Blood hardens in the sand

Cold metal in my hand

Hope you understand the way that things are gonna be

There's nowhere left to hide

Cause god is on our side

I keep telling myself

I am trying to see

I am trying to believe

This is not where i should be

I am trying to believe
