Can’t find nobody to cast a stone
When you’re living in the city of broken bones
Can’t live your last day tucked away in a shell
You won’t be alone when you get to hell
There’s a bomb coming out of the sky and everybody knows
But the highway’s shut down and ain’t no place to go
There’s a party in the streets before we bleed
Everything’s free on Independence Day Eve
It don’t matter you’re a saint, a lover, or a liar
When you’re watching your city burning up in the fire
Faces flashing in the night, who could that be?
Voices churning in my head like a holy choir
There’s a bomb coming out of the sky and everybody knows
But the highway’s shut down and ain’t no place to go
There’s a party in the streets before we bleed
Everything’s free on Independence Day Eve
