Copper Ledge - 7 Seconds

Here we sit like we have many times

Familiar feeling

Hear the change of thousands pouring in

Yeah, dealers, bosses, white and black

There’s eyes that watch us over

If there is a hell, this must be it

Hope is all you started with

You’ve seen as you walk in

Doubtful they could be your friends

A game you can depend on

This wicked thing is sin

It’s ugly when you reach the end

The time is nonexistent

Stranger people stay insistent

You may win but do you win a thing?

Old hands now black from filthy money

Tickets from the pawn shops

Back tomorrow

Does this make much sense?

Hope is all you started with

You’ve seen as you walk in

Doubtful they could be your friends

A game you can depend on

This wicked thing is sin

It’s ugly when you reach the end

This town means nothing

This town will never grow

This town’s a ghost town

You really outta know

Wheels spin, the sounds of ringing

Pain inside my head

I think it’s better just to find the edge

It’s safe up here, I’m staying

I’d rather watch some other’s fail

Like a king up on this Copper Ledge
