Walking On My Grave

I can't stay knowing what's going down
 I can't stay, darkness on the edge of town
 Streetwise kids in an act of defiance
 Out to defeat what's already behind us
 Rattle and shake their political cans
 Giving directions without any plans
 There's a new kid on the block
 And he's taking my place
 Walking on my grave
 I can't stay staring down a .44
 I can't stay dying on the killing floor
 A man in blue and he's drawing a gun
 A child in the shadows too scared to run
 Crack on the mirror of a teenage dream
 Like a lost generation on L.S.D.
 There's a new kid on the block
 And he's taking my place
 Walking on my grave
 I can't stay knowing what's going down
 I can't stay, darkness on the edge of town
 The brain's still twitching but the eyes are closed
 My best friends dying from an overdose
 A red light flares unacounted for
 It's happening now and it's happened before
 There's a new kid on the block
 And he's taken my place
 Walking on my grave
