This city looms over its streets of decay Life here is hanging by a thread That is beginning to fray I can hear the clock ticking away Hathian’s grip will always hold me Is my life here really mine? I feel like I’m living on borrowed time Blood and bones litter these streets, Like the debris of dying stars, Should I try to run or do I just stay Trying to drown my sorrows at the bar Is my tomorrow just gonna fade away? Every step I take Is like a dance on a landmine Living here on borrowed time Death stalks corners in this crooked maze Cops and gangs clashing to get control Hope fades in a cloud of haze The darkness follows me everyday This city has taken it's toll on me Is my life here really mine? I feel like I’m living on borrowed time Blood and bones litter these streets Like the debris of dying stars Should I try to run or do I just stay Trying to drown my sorrows at the bar Is my tomorrow just gonna fade away? Living here on borrowed time Living here on borrowed time Death stalks corners in this crooked maze Cops and gangs clashing to get control Hope fades in a cloud of haze The darkness follows me everyday This city has taken it's toll on me Is my life here really mine? I feel like I’m living on borrowed time Living here on borrowed time
