Parental Advisory - Violence

He was just walking the dog. Death is cheap here.

Lyrics

Wires stretched out like nerves over the highway
Blind windows look out but don't want to see
This jungle is concrete and telephone poles
The black tags on the grey walls tell a story of struggle

There are worse things than jail
Dead men won't tell the tale

She sees him walk
Through the door
She sets a spot at the table
Even though
He's not here anymore
And nobody
Nobody
Can ever know her pain
Can ever know her pain

The old man says he had to clean up the body
It's not like on TV drawn in chalk
The young man who was just walking his dog
Became blood and brains on the sidewalk in a memory

There are worse things than jail
Dead men won't tell the tale

She sees him walk
Through the door
She sets a spot at the table
Even though
He's not here anymore
And nobody
Nobody
Can ever know her pain
Can ever know her pain

It's easier to buy a gun than get a job they say
So yesterday there was another meeting about another death
No breath, no breather in between
Choices are run drugs or run up your debts on welfare checks
Check this you can't move out
Just wallow in doubt, drowning out another heartbeat
And we meet again

Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome
Welcome
Welcome to the jungle
