People Live Here Songtext / Lyric

may you be in heaven before
the devil knows you're dead
and may these winds be always at your back
because when we're all just ghosts
and the madness overtakes us
we will look at the ashes
and say people lived here from the penthouse to the holy martyr
sea to shining sea
from the coffins full of kindergarteners
is this what you call free?
from the hate that drips from all your crosses
are your hands so clean?
there's a wildfire
and it's spreading far
from sea to shining sea

shwen we're all just ghosts
and the madness overtakes us
i will scream to the sky
yeah I'll scream to the sky
yeah I'll scream to the sky
hey people live here
