[Verse 1]
Drinking from the steaming street
Filling up my lungs with heat
Breathe out all that anger
Try to find some inner peace

[Verse 2]
Shadows trying to run me down
Telling me it ain’t my town
Be that it as it may
I’m cashing in my favor now

[Pre-Chorus]
Hid it in the basement
Gotta keep it safe somehow

[Chorus]
But it’s really quite a shame that it’s gone to waste
I was hoping to bring some home
As I slowly roller-skate through a wall of hate
I was hoping to save my soul, but what’s it for?

[Verse 3]
Tumbling down that hill again
Bodied by the rushing wind
Then I reach the end yet
Wonder why the light’s so dim

[Verse 4]
Listen to your roommates hum
Down the hall as I woke up
Chair legs on the hardwood
Think I’ll pour myself a cup

[Pre-Chorus]
Sister for the weekend
Love you still when Monday comes

[Chorus]
But it’s really quite a shame that it’s gone to waste
I was starting to feel so whole
Feel like every single day's such a piece of cake
I was trying to bring some home
As I slowly roller-skate through a wall of hate
I was hoping to save my soul, but what’s it for?
