The Menzingers - Freedom Bridge lyrics

Amy was a waitress at The Fire Street Grill Up route 611 she was slaving for the pill Oxy's got her pupils pinned up A junkie centerfold With grey hairs and a d**h wish She was 22 years old Had it all Took the fall Had it all Took the fall Specialist Jeg, a much more honest man than you Came back from the desert where he never found the truth Now he screeches tires, fills his head with alcohol While the morbid brown faces hang like portraits on the wall Had it all He took the fall Had it all They took it all Something happened on the way to hell, The new guard they took my sister Something happened on the way to hell, The old guard they took my brother away Something happened on the way to hell, The same greed it took our parents Something happened on the way to hell, The west wall it took us with it McTiernan was a good ol' boy, he cheated and he skimmed "A favor for a favor, it can't be called a sin" Some may see it different, and some don't see at all When the papers started calling he closed his eyes and took the fall Had it all Took the fall Had it all Took the fall Now we're standing on the ledge And we're looking at the ground I feel my body breaking on the asphalt, hear the sound Red and blue lights screaming saying, "Step up off that ledge" So we wrap our hearts up in our heads And take the fall instead Had it all Took the fall Had it all Took the fall Something happened on the way to hell The new guard they took my sister Something happened on the way to hell The old guard they took my brother away Something happened on the way to hell The same greed it took our parents Something happened on the way to hell The west wall it took us with it Something happened on the way to hell The west wall it took us with it
