I was on a train that derailed in Dekalb
Just a kid but I remember the sound
Of it all breaking down
As we all went down
First the metal squealed as the car jumped the track
Windows exploded the seams
Then the scene
Filled with screams
Yeah, the scene filled with screams
Back in present day, I see a face in the crowd
There's a gun and he's pulling it out
Just a moment to shout
The world falls down
Time slips away as the night jumps the track
When the murderer turns to me
And he sees what I've seen
Turns to me and he screams
It was the Warriors! The Warriors!
The Warriors shot Cyrus
No, I didn't do this! I'd never do this!
Didn't you see them?
Yeah
I know I seen 'em!
I don't see a way to escape from (The Warriors!)
The crowd
They shout, I shout (The Warriors shot Cyrus!)
I stand my ground (Cyrus! Cyrus!)
Look around, I'm surrounded, I
Drown in the shots and the shouts (Cyrus! Cyrus!)
As the world falls down
Warriors! Get away from the crowd!
Make your way downtown
(SWAN & GRAMERCY RIFFS)
Gotta find a way (Cyrus goes down)
To escape from the crowd!
Go the other way (Stay down! Stay down!)
Or there's no getting out!
Who will save us now?
There's a broken gate (Stay down! Stay down!)
Get out!
At the edge of the playground
Get out!
Everybody stay down
(SWAN & GRAMERCY RIFFS)
Stay down! (Cyrus)
Stay down! (Cyrus)
Everybody stay down
Make a little space (Cyrus is gone)
At the break in the gate now
Yo! Punch your f*ckin' way through
The gate 'til it breaks down
Who will save us now?
Gotta make a way
When there's no
Other way out
Freeze! Police! Alright boys, take 'em out! (Cyrus! Cyrus!)
Now every move that we make is a bid to survive
(Sirens surround, do you hear that sound?)
Keep us alive
When you woke up today, you didn't think you could die
Neither did I (Sirens, sirens)
Woodlawn Cemetery way up the hill
I don't love runnin'
Run to the cemetery, way up the hill
I guess we're runnin'
Run to the cemetery, way up the hill!
Or it's the graveyard
Or it's the graveyard!
Woah!
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-ay
Warriors, come out to play-ay-ay-ay-ay!
