Cracks In The Bridge

* co-written with Chris Gantry *
You walk outside and what do you see
See the whole world crumblin’ down
Hear the people callin’
Whatcha’ got whatcha’ gonna’ do
When despair is the only sound
See an ambulance rollin’ by
Your sweet mama lyin’ inside
Run back in and pack a little bag
Grab a few bucks lyin’ on the sink
You better hurry now
Deafening noise planes fallin’ from the sky
Ain’t got a second to blink
We’s in some kinda’ fix
Everybody the bricks
Cracks in the bridge
Sinkholes in the dirt
You know what we did baby
Now it’s startin’ to hurt
We got no cement
Too late to fix it all up
It’s gonna’ come crashin’ down on toppa’ your
Brand new Dodge Ram truck
Half a million leavin’
Runnin’ outta’ Eden
Something’s gotta’ give
Cracks in the bridge
Gotta’ reckon’ with the changin’ times
Too poor to pass the buck
It’s all a gamble now
Karma’s comin’ and she’s mad as hell
Like a Colt .45 to your head pow pow
Win lose live or die
Ran outta’ tears to cry
