Welcome to the bad neighbourhood
I did everything to be there
I tried living good
But the friends were wrong, the drinks were strong
The songs were long, I couldn't sing along
And you found a home in a good neighbourhood
Tried reading other words
And watching other birds
And the records they played made me want to stay
But the songs were long, I couldn't sing along
And you found a home in a good neighbourhood
I remember when the stars were dimmer
Filed in films of a rotten summer
Watching the houses burn
