Yeah, yeah Watch the dust settle over the
pavement (uh-huh)
White lines tracing patterns on the kitchen table
Locked in a loop,
static on the cable
It took my morning focus,
now it wants the night
Shaking under fluorescent light
My body's moving but my thoughts are thin
Can't tell where the chemical ends and I begin (breath-in)
It's in the air,
it's in the brick and stone
It took the city and it wants my throne
It's in my mind,
it's in my aching bones (let it go) Now we're just pacing
through the danger zone
Spirit starting to drift,
fading into gray While the dealers on the corner make another play
My chest is tight,
beating like a drum Waiting for the morning but the light won't
come
Whole city's under the influence of the powder
Silence in my soul while the noise gets louder (stuttering)
Mind is running fast,
spirit running slow
How deep does this river of dust go?
(tell me)
It's in the air,
it's in the brick and stone
It took the city and it wants my throne
It's in my mind,
it's in my aching bones
(let it go) Now we're just pacing through the danger zone
Just a shadow on the wall
Watching the empire fall (shhhh)
