[Intro]
Cold streets of Jakobstad, empty bottle in my lap
Paper mill's a ghost now, just like my old man's past
[Verse 1]
Vodka numbs the pain while I'm cruising through these streets
Sofia's words still echo, making my heart skip beats
F*cking lost my mind when you walked away that night
Industrial wasteland, everything's black and white
Dad lost everything when the mill shut down
Now I'm following his footsteps, straight into the ground
[Chorus]
Empty factories, empty promises
Everything I touch just falls apart and splits
Drowning in this void, can't escape this shit
Like father, like son, we're both counterfeit
[Verse 2]
Three AM decisions got me swerving down these roads
Your experimental bullshit playing through my headphones
Half a bottle deep, contemplating what we had
Every broken dream just makes me f*cking mad
Steel and concrete, that's all that's left to see
Working class despair runs deep in my DNA
[Bridge]
Sofia, I'm losing grip
Watch me f*cking spiral, watch me f*cking slip
These streets are getting colder
And I'm getting older, but not any bolder
[Chorus]
Empty factories, empty promises
Everything I touch just falls apart and splits
Drowning in this void, can't escape this shit
Like father, like son, we're both counterfeit
[Outro]
Just another ghost in this dead-end town
Watch me burn it all, watch me burn it down
