Letra de Poet of Trash

I was a hack in the class
Armed with a broken pen in my hand
I was a poet of trash
Recycled lines like bottles and cans

Now those lonely streets
Are littered with pieces of me

My city is rising
Out of the night
The lights are aligning
My city is rising
Just the sound of the wind
There's no going back
The shadows are dead
We all fade to black
Left my heart on the rail
Because it's all that I had

Lake Street Bridge
Dark blue midnight
Loved this breath with all of my life
The river blooms
Black ink flows in reverse
Swallowed the best and the worst of my words

All these sounds
Hum and buzz and drone in me now

I was a hack in the class
Broken pen in my hand
I was a poet of trash
Pinned my heart to my sleeve
Because it's all that I had.
