Sad days, kissing the cheeks of the families who are walking away Tragic, the pubs are opposing, the system is broken, decay Because business is down, at the depot Defenses are the only things built Neighbors wave goodbye to each other This country is over, they say, yeah Now this is life In a modern town The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out It's not a good day left to be in a fight 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life If nothing gets done it will never be right But don't shut 'em down Lately, the 21st century's been crazy It's the sign of the times Buildings decomposing in slumber There's no work for all till they wake, yeah Now this is life In a modern town The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out It's not a good day left to be in a fight 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life If nothing gets done it will never be right But don't shut 'em down Don't shut 'em down Too many faults, no reasons The rains that fall, dry bleeding Upon the ashes of our homes Our homes, our homes Save our homes Manic The word on the street here is panic There's a riot on hand People, taking care of the people There's no other way, or we'll break Yeah, this is life In a modern town The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out It's not a good day left to be in a fight 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life This is life In a modern town The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out It's not a good day left to be in a fight 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life If nothing gets done it will never be right But don't shut 'em down Don't shut 'em down Don't shut 'em down Sad days, kissing the cheeks of the families (you can't shut 'em down) Sad days, kissing the cheeks of the families (you won't shut 'em down)
