Verse 1

There's a sodium light above the estate

And the last bus home is running late

You're smoking cheap cigarettes by the gate

Like you've got nowhere else to be

The river runs black underneath the bridge

Kids throw stones from the edge of the ridge

And every promise we made as kids

Got buried underneath the street

Pre-Chorus

And I know we said we'd leave this place

But the years put weight upon our names

Now every road just looks the same

When you're too tired to run

Chorus

We're living on a landfill

Building castles out of broken glass

Trying to make tomorrow

From everything they threw away in the past

And if there's something worth saving

I swear to God, I'll find it still

'Cause I don't wanna die here

But I don't wanna leave you

On the landfill

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Underneath it all

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

Even when the whole thing falls

Verse 2

Your brother's working nights at the factory

Your mother counts the pennies for the electricity

And your old man stares at the TV

Like the world might change if he waits

There's a photograph stuck to the fridge

You at seventeen, stood on the Tyne bridge

Before the rent and the overtime shifts

Before we learned what a promise costs

Pre-Chorus

And I know you think you've lost your way

But I see the fire underneath the grey

And if they took your best years away

We'll steal a few back tonight

Chorus

We're living on a landfill

Building castles out of broken glass

Trying to make tomorrow

From everything they threw away in the past

And if there's something worth saving

I swear to God, I'll find it still

'Cause I don't wanna die here

But I don't wanna leave you

On the landfill

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Underneath it all

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

Even when the whole thing falls

Bridge

Maybe we're not meant to be clean

Maybe the cracks are where we're meant to breathe

Maybe everything they said we'd never be

Is waiting somewhere underneath

So let the houses shake

Let the old foundations break

If there's nothing left to lose

Then there's nothing left to take

Final Chorus

We're living on a landfill

But there's a garden growing through the cracks

And maybe all this ruin

Isn't something that we have to leave behind

If there's something worth saving

I swear to God, I'll find it still

'Cause I don't wanna die here

But I don't wanna leave you

No, I don't wanna leave you

On the landfill

Final Post-Chorus

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Let the whole thing fall

Oh-oh, oh-oh

We're still here, we're still here

We were never nothing at all

Outro

There's a sodium light above the estate

And the last bus home is running late

But you take my hand at the garden gate

And for once, I don't wanna leave
