Faint, The - Violent lyrics

I checked in a room today
up above the downtown market bricks
right now a boy gets old
a boy gets bitter
a boy learns not to trust
someone inside his room
the door locks tight
you keep the door locked

months went by & the doors got kicked in
two outlaws collecting what they loaned
in a room beside my walls
a girl gets choked
she can not pay back the loan
48 more hours to go
"48 more hours" that is all they say
in two more nights
I hear a sound
a shrill from one thin wall away

every place is the same
every day´s the same
every place is the same
violent
theres a conflicting sound
hear the arguments loud
everyday, the sounds of the
violent violent violent

I moved uptown a bit
not much changed
conflict is never gone
but just as a calm sets in
a police line barricades
a place next door I asked
around the lot a store
clerk told me two young
kids were shot mother
was near the tracks dragged
to where a train would go past
