Cigarette burns on the back of my hand Cheap nights out, yeah we barely stand Taxi lights bleeding through the rain We said we’d leave but we stayed again Corner shop dreams in a plastic bag Talkin’ big while we’re dressed in rags Every promise just a punchline joke We laugh it off but we’re going broke And I don’t wanna hear it All your talk about escape We’re stuck inside the system But we’re wired to break We got concrete hearts, we don’t fall apart We just crack a bit, then we restart Shout it loud like we own this town Even when it drags us down Concrete hearts, yeah we play the part Little kings with a broken chart If it all goes wrong, we’ll still sing along ‘Cause this is where we belong Train tracks hum like a lullaby Dreams get lost but we still get high Every street got a ghost we know Every bar got a tale we told You say love but it feels like war Slammed doors and a broken drawer But we kiss like it’s do or die Yeah we live just to feel alive And I don’t wanna fake it All that shine don’t mean a thing We’re bruised but we’re breathing Still got fight in the ring We got concrete hearts, we don’t fall apart We just crack a bit, then we restart Shout it loud like we own this town Even when it drags us down Concrete hearts, yeah we play the part Little kings with a broken chart If it all goes wrong, we’ll still sing along ‘Cause this is where we belong They said “grow up, get a real job, get in line” But I’d rather burn out than fade in time We’re the noise in the silence We’re the spark in the dark Yeah we’re scars turned to science Every bruise is an art We got concrete hearts, we don’t fall apart We just crack a bit, then we restart Scream it out, let the whole world know We ain’t ever letting go Concrete hearts, yeah we play the part From the gutter to the charts If it all goes wrong, we’ll still sing along ‘Cause this is where we belong
