The Rusty Trombones - Shadow Of A Bomb Lyrics

waiting for the buzz but the buzz doesn’t come
trying to solve my problems but i’m running out of rum
this situation’s constantly on repeat
i can’t find piece of mind in the jungle of concrete
every calculated step’s another i can’t stand
one forward two back in this self-proclaimed promised land
no direction
and it still seems wrong
no protection
you’re living in the shadow of a bomb
it seems i’m always going the wrong way
i never know where i’m going at night
i just continue down the path lit up by the streetlights
devils on both sides here we go here we go
screaming out songs of justice, f*ck the radio
but my thoughts are as empty as the bottle i was sold
my refusal of the system is the crutch that i hold
drunk to f*cking hell as bottles hit the ground
there’s a riot on the street but is this how it should sound
so much pain in the world i’m being taken away
so let’s make this a long evening and f*cking call it a day
on the road to nowhere and it still seems wrong
you can’t find f*cking shelter in the shadow of a bomb
