Don't Shut 'em Down - Acoustic Version

[00:00.36] One, two, three, four
[00:02.16]
[00:14.20] Sad days, kissing the cheeks
[00:16.99] Of the families who are walking away
[00:20.33] Tragic, the pubs are opposing
[00:23.16] The system is broken, decay
[00:27.31] Because business is down at the depot
[00:30.88] Defenses are the only things built
[00:33.98] Neighbors wave goodbye to each other
[00:36.91] This country is over they say
[00:41.18] Now, this is life in a modern town
[00:44.51] The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out
[00:47.65] It's not a good day left to be in a fight
[00:50.54] 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life
[00:53.66] If nothing gets done it will never be right
[00:57.78] But don't shut 'em down
[01:01.41]
[01:05.18] Lately, the 21st century's been crazy
[01:09.54] It's the sign of the times
[01:11.58] Buildings decomposing in slumber
[01:14.38] There's no work for all 'til they wake
[01:18.49] Yeah, this is life in a modern town
[01:21.94] The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out
[01:24.93] It's not a good day left to be in a fight
[01:28.08] 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life
[01:31.06] If nothing gets done it will never be right
[01:35.22] But don't shut 'em down, don't shut 'em down
[01:49.48] Too many faults, no reasons
[01:52.42] The rains that fall, dry bleeding
[01:55.56] Upon the ashes of our homes
[02:00.40] Our homes, save our homes
[02:06.12]
[02:16.47] Manic, the word on the street here is panic
[02:20.83] There's a riot at hand
[02:22.86] People, taking care of the people
[02:25.77] There's no other way or we'll break
[02:30.01] Yeah, this is life in a modern town
[02:33.49] The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out
[02:36.43] It's not a good day left to be in a fight
[02:39.53] 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life
[02:42.28] Yeah, this is life in a modern town
[02:45.63] The windows smashed open with the doors kicked out
[02:48.64] It's not a good day left to be in a fight
[02:51.65] 'Cause living is hard through the struggles of life
[02:54.74] If nothing gets done it will never be right
[02:58.89] But don't shut 'em down, don't shut 'em down
[03:12.20] Sad days, kissing the cheeks of the families
[03:18.40] Sad days, kissing the cheeks of the families
[03:23.26] You won't shut 'em down
[03:25.86]
