Walnut Street Is Dead (Long Live Walnut Street)

This is where i lived & learned, the place where i was born
And i will never leave it (i will never leave it)
I know that you are headed to the west or some place else
It is your resting place, inside that safe escape
You scream out loud like siren sounds, you've reached your final goal
Which is to have and hold
As for us we've figured out exactly how to breathe
With vanishing lungs like these
So thank you new england trees
And the sidewalks of walnut street
