These streets are stained with broken dreams
Nothing here is what it seems
We thought we’d rise, we thought we’d fly
But now we’re left wondering why
The city’s taken all we had
Left us broken, bruised, and sad
Our love’s been torn apart by the fight
Now all we do is fade into night
Stained streets, where love turns cold
Where hearts are bought and souls are sold
We tried to run, we tried to hide
But in the city, we lost our pride
Stained streets, we’ve bled too long
We thought we’d win, but we were wrong
Now we’re left with nothing to gain
Stained streets, full of love and pain
The lights are dim, the shadows fall
We used to stand, but now we crawl
The city took what we couldn’t give
Now we’re just fighting to live
Stained streets, where love turns cold
Where hearts are bought and souls are sold
We tried to run, we tried to hide
But in the city, we lost our pride
Stained streets, we’ve bled too long
We thought we’d win, but we were wrong
Now we’re left with nothing to gain
Stained streets, full of love and pain
We thought we’d rise above the storm
But the city’s cold and far from warm
Now we’re just echoes of what we knew
Stained by the city we fell into
Stained streets, where love turns cold
Where hearts are bought and souls are sold
We tried to run, we tried to hide
But in the city, we lost our pride
Stained streets, we’ve bled too long
We thought we’d win, but we were wrong
Now we’re left with nothing to gain
Stained streets, full of love and pain
Stained streets, we fade away
In this city’s grip, we’ll never stay
