This town has its claws
Buried in my neck
This town it takes lives
Without mercy
Without hate
The streets are in distress
The sun sufficates behind darkened skies
The grass is growing
On top of my feet
I'm sinking
Won't be long
Before i'm too deep too run
The line up seems endless
Underneath the salvation signs
We are the dead ones
We are the lost cause
We are the bend before the break
Our steps seal our fate
Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts [Ghosts] from broken homes [Homes]
Because this city, this city is haunted
There's no hope [Hope] left for these souls [Souls]
Every step i take
I leave a small piece of myself behind
Soon there will be nothing left
The cracks in the pavement
Match the cracks in their weathered skin
The sky's a brick wall
The ground's a juggernaut
Each day they get a bit closer
Between them, i am caught
I stare in amazement
I can't believe this is where i live
Every breath i take
I feel my lungs seal
this breeze feels more like shards of glass
I'm more scars than skin
Because this city, this city is haunted
By ghosts [Ghosts] from broken homes [Homes]
Because this city, this city is haunted
There's no hope [Hope] left for these souls [Souls]
Our steps seal fate [x2]
This is our celebration
Come join the lost souls [x2]
This city, this city is haunted
Oh! Walk with us, Oh!
Damn! Walk with us!
City, this city is haunted
By ghosts [Ghosts] from broken homes[ Homes]
Because this city, this city is haunted
There's no hope [Hope] left for these souls [Souls]

Review about This Could Be Anywhere the title | Reviewer: coco | 10/25/2008
in the song they are talking about one city.
for me, the title says it all. its not just one town; its the whole world. there are a million different horrors happening all over the world, pollution,war,abuse,hunger. this song made me cry. only 2 songs have ever made me cry.
Sweet song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/17/2008
Currenly my favourite song. I heard it the other day, and just fell in love with it. It's not very often I find a song that I like both the screaming AND the singing. This is one of the few (Chapter Four comes to mind as another).
But yeah, I'm really starting to like this band.
awsome | Reviewer: anonymus | 4/2/2008

This Could Be Anywhere | Reviewer: jack perilous | 9/7/2007
the beautiful thing about music is that it is wide open for interpretation. this song is literal in the fact of the modern city flaws such as pollution and mundane every day tasks. but also i think it has a deeper meaning of possibly abuse victims and how they want to get away from it all including the city they have lived in so long, because everything reminds them of it. it probably has a more personal meaning to the band/band member(s) that the average fan may never know.
but as far as the song, it is as beautiful as ever.
sick assssssssssssss song | Reviewer: jordan | 7/19/2007

Amazing compared to their other songs... | Reviewer: Lev | 7/17/2007
This song is truely amazing but considering the rest of their songs aren't great, it's understandable that atleast one of their songs are rediculously good... However the lyrics are well written and Dallas sings it like no other.

Good | Reviewer: Aaron | 6/9/2007
I've decided against my better judgement that i love this song. Simply becaues of the contrast (vocal wise) between Dallas Green and the other guy whose name escapes me.
And yeah, obviously it's a metaphor. I love these lyrics.
alexisonfire is the greatest band ever and this song omg its just so cool how they are singning it this band is so amazing
