lyrics

Here we are
Chickens with our
Heads chopped off

And we were
Walking through the yard
Till the farmers came
And ripped us apart

But we don't know what to do
We had all the right stuff
We even stayed in school

And we were
So **** cool
When the storm came down
We even kept our rules

Saying nobody walks alone
When every heart on a sleeve
Is a car broken down
By the side of the road

What does it all mean?
Outside of lives wrapped up in magazines
You know those spines are too weak

And if our dreams
Were like bones
We'd break them through this scene

But we don't know what to say
Keep our voices low enough
And we'll be fading away
Into songs for better days

But when the storm came down
The words got washed away

Saying nobody walks alone
When every heart on a sleeve
Is a car broken down
By the side of the road
