[Verse 1]

This used to be a place where we could walk the streets

Unrestricted by imaginary fears

Things didn't seem to be so complicated then

'Til you polluted everything that we had here

Our little secret was exposed for all its worth

Stripped of everything that made it good, and then

We were forced out of the world that we created

And expected to move on and start again

[Chorus]

We live here today

We live here always, always

We live here today

We live here always, always, always

[Verse 2]

The money moved right in and sucked the life right out

So the privileged could sit back and enjoy

The things that made this place what it was before you came here

Were the first things you decided to destroy

We walk your streets late at night while you're asleep

Creeping from the sewers, oozing from the cracks

We are the blood that pumps the heart you call your home

And any day we're gonna come and take it back

[Chorus]

We live here today

We live here always, always

We live here today

We live here always, always

[Bridge]

We live here, we live here, we live here, we live here, we live here, we live here

We live here, we live here, we live here, we live here, we live here, we live here

[Chorus]

We live here today

We live here always, always

We live here today

We live here always, always, always
