We're taking bats to the neighborhood
Where we don't belong
Where they said we can't go
Carve our names in all the wood, in the concrete
They think they're safe in their homes
So they can see it, remind them that we exist
This place is not their own
This city's our birthright; we'll keep our fists tight
So they'll know
Hey! I can say we're all just fucked up kids and that's ok
If we don't belong to anyone or anything
We're all just fucked up kids walking on promises
We're breaking all of them, but we could be
We're getting good at being bad
They don't understand
What's it hurt? They don't know
Apologies, we never have
We're a shot of light in the dark, a faint glow
But we burn the brightest during the night shift
Hanging with New York's finest
So when the bars close and everyone heads home
We don't go
Hey! I can say we're all just fucked up kids and that's ok
If we don't belong to anyone or anything
We're all just fucked up kids walking on promises
We're breaking all of them, but we could be
We can roam the streets, drinking Genesee
Running from police, taking shots til' we're lost
Or disturb the peace, cause we never sleep
Down your drink and we're gone again
But hey! We're all just fucked up kids and that's ok
If we don't belong to anyone or anything
We're all just fucked up kids
Breaking before we bend, born to lose in the end
But we could be more
Born to lose in the end, but we could be more than this
