Straight outta herkimer
Every word, written by AI.
[intro] Straight Outta Herkimer
verse
Born in the shadows where the streetlights fade
Herkimer nights where the demons played
Concrete dreams in a broken town
Where the lost get found then they're back down
verse
Needle kisses on a busted vein
Whispered lies like a sweet cocaine
Bloodstain memories on the alley floor
Another name that they scream no more
pre-chorus
Mama cried but the sirens screamed
Daddy's ghost in a nicotine dream
Prayers got lost in the hollow air
Nobody left who would even care
chorus
Straight outta Herkimer where the pain runs deep
Where the angels fall and the devil creeps
One more hit one more shot in the dark
Straight outta Herkimer where the fire leaves a mark
verse
Schoolyard fights turned to midnight chases
Cops and robbers but with loaded faces
Empty pockets but the hunger stays
Another soul lost in the Herkimer maze
pre-chorus
Mama cried but the sirens screamed
Daddy's ghost in a nicotine dream
Prayers got lost in the hollow air
Nobody left who would even care
chorus
Straight outta Herkimer where the pain runs deep
Where the angels fall and the devil creeps
One more hit one more shot in the dark
Straight outta Herkimer where the fire leaves a mark
break
chorus
Straight outta Herkimer where the pain runs deep
Where the angels fall and the devil creeps
One more hit one more shot in the dark
Straight outta Herkimer where the fire leaves a mark
