SHMPILE WE
Therds a breakdown

on the runway.

and the timeless flights are gone.
I'm a year ahead

of myself these days.

and I'm locomotive strong.
My city spread like cannon fire
in a yellow. nervous state.
I can't cut the ties that bind me

to horoscopes and fate.
And I won't break and I won't bend.
but someday soon we'll sail away

to innocence and the bitter end.
And I won't break and I won't bend.
And with the last breath
we ever take. we're gonna get back

to the simple life again.
When we break out of this blindfold.
I'm gonna take you from this place.
Until we're free from this

ball and chain . . .
. . . I'm still hard behind the eight.
And my city
beats like hammered steel

on a shallow. cruel rock.
If we could

walk proud after midnight.

we'd never have to stop.
And I won't break and I won't bend.
but someday soon we'll sail away

to innocence and the bitter end.
And I won't break and I won't bend.
And with the last breath
we ever take. we're gonna get back

to the simple life again.
And I won't break and I won't bend.
And with the last breath
we ever take. we're gonna get back

to the simple life again.
