lyrics

I heard they tore down Astroworld, my favorite theme park. Each ride torn down and six flag furled is like a dagger through my heart. I know that I shouldn't be surprised that men with dollar signs in their eyes would take million dollar bids on the memory of kids' summer nights.

The Warp 2000 is the first ride that I ever loved. You sit in a car that rotates around an arm that rotates around a hub. But its all gone.

I heard they tore down Astroworld, packed up and moved away. The orphaned rides found foster homes, but its just not the same. But you know who I feel sorriest for? Those who never got to darken its doors. Because it's one thing to describe and another to arrive and explore.

I can't count how many times I saw "Blast!" before it ended its run. And where else could you be swung from swings suspended from giant guns? I used to stand in line for the cyclone but could never get on, and the XLR-8 was great in its day now it's gone.

Its all gone.
