hello cruel world
[Verse 1]
I moved to Coronado, off exit 17
Now, I pay two thousand dollars for a place where I can't sleep
There's no going back now
To château de vie
I had just as many problems when I left that place behind
[Chorus]
Now I hear fireworks or gunshots in the alley
[Verse 2]
There's a man outside my window on New Year's Eve
I feel chemical fear
I hear gravel under feet
Not much I can do about it, I'll just lay here frozen still
And if anything bad happens just consider this my will
It's all for you
[Chorus]
Now I hear fireworks or gunshots in the alley
Home's just where I happеn to be
[Interlude]
Fireworks or gunshots in the allеy
Fireworks or gunshots
[Bridge]
Goodbye, Benjamin
Hello, cruel world
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
(Fireworks or gunshots in the alley)
(Fireworks or gunshots)
