DAWN BREAKS, TAKE IN THE VIEW SEE THE WORLD CHANGE FROM THE ONE THAT I ONCE KNEW WALK PAST THE POT SHOP OWNED BY A COP BRING BACK THE DAY WHEN SOMEONE WOULD’VE GLUED THOSE LOCKS PIGS WERE LURKING IN THE PARKETTE SO NEVER MAKE A WRONG STEP OR IT’S A RIDE TO CHERRY BEACH NOW AMNESTY IS A DREAM, LEGALIZATION WAS A SCHEME AND THEY LIE THROUGH THEIR FUCKING TEETH AND THE ARRESTS WON’T STOP AND THE PRICES DON’T DROP AS THEY WATCH ALL THE PROFITS ROLL IN SO NOW I’M CAUGHT UP IN THE PAST JUST TRYING TO CHANGE THE FACTS WE OVER-WROTE THE MAP JUST TRYING TO GET BACK WHEN YOU CRACK THE FACADE YOU CAN SEE THE TRUTH: WE LIVED OUR LIVES LIKE THEY WERE ONLY OURS TO LOSE WHERE WAS THE PLACE WE USED FOR SHOWS? NOW IT’S BURIED UNDERNEATH WHERE THE CONDO GROWS WE WERE THE LICHEN, WE LET THEM IN AS WE ROSE ALL THE OTHER LIGHTS DIMMED I REMEMBER DEAN HANDING OUT HIS ZINE AND FLYERS FOR UPCOMING SHOWS NOW IT’S BEEN A FEW YEARS, I WONDER IF HE IS STILL HERE? SADLY THAT’S THE WAY LIFE GOES AND WE ALL GOT TO STOP ONCE WE MAKE IT TO THE TOP AND LOOK AT ALL THE DAMAGE WE’VE DONE. SO NOW I’M CAUGHT UP IN THE PAST JUST TRYING TO CHANGE THE FACTS WE OVER-WROTE THE MAP NOW I’M TRYING TO GET BACK WHEN YOU CRACK THE FACADE YOU CAN SEE THE TRUTH: WE LIVED OUR LIVES LIKE THEY WERE ONLY OURS TO LOSE
