My city sleeps by the side of a freeway
The city scraps
And winter time she wore a yellow coat
Now there's nothing on her back
If a building falls you wouldn't care to notice
Unless you were in it
Then no one cares about climbing stairs
Nothing at the top no more
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
I watch a millionaire crack
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
There's nothing wrong with that
Now the snow falls down like it's falling on an ocean
Dead and empty by the railroad tracks
Where they used to go and come
Now they don't come back
You can kill the rust, going up the through ways
Down the alleys
Where they stole this town from the frontier
I can see them trying to steal it back
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
I watch a millionaire crack
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
There's nothing wrong with that (x2)
Now the sun won't shine
On this part of the map anymore
When it's cold outside
I see it hide behind the smokestacks
No thin roses, no goldrush
No miner, no revolution they'd hire
And the shipyard is a graveyard
No one will be trying to find him
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
I watch a millionaire crack
Outside tripping in the broken city
Outside kicking in the broken city
There's nothing wrong with that (x2)
Nothing wrong with that
Outside tripping in the broken city, yeah
Hey, outside tripping in the broken city
Hey, outside tripping in the broken city
Outside, outside
Outside, outside
Outside, outside
Outside
