Fallen Ones
Duff McKagan
A trip cut short before it began
That one last shot of smoke and gun
Or that empty bottle he said he'd stop that day
A federal case of what has been done
To a city far up on opiates
The doctor, he got off, he shot up and walked away
They simply say that we're just losers
They ask about how we were raised
Or shake their heads, at damn pollution
In time, it goes away, this all fades
This is to the fallen ones
Swept aside the dead and done
This is for the fallen ones today
The empty heart a hero saw
The beaten down, all hope is gone
This is for the fallen ones today
They simply say we must be losers
They talk about how we were raised
Or shake their heads, so much confusion
But in time, it goes away, it all fades, yeah
This is to the fallen ones
Swept aside so very young
This is for the fallen ones today
The empty heart a hero saw
The beaten down, all hope is gone
This is for the fallen ones today
The trampled down would never walk
The day is young, the Sun will come
This is for the fallen ones today
This is for the fallen ones today
