lyrics

Dead plazas now line this road, failing forgotten postal codes
No hopes in the bottom of town, now easier to just let it fall down
All of these stores died slow deaths, Check cashers are all that's left
Business closing in default, reduced to crumbling asphalt

Plenty of parking but no purpose left to stop
Just keep driving windows up and doors locked
Few reminders that remain from better days
We let dead plazas fade away, fade away (Fade away)

Fifty years of suburban sprawl, vibrant neighborhoods destroyed by malls
Disposable development polished and shined, into oblivion becoming punchlines
A sizeable hole too large to unsee,
Minimum support for the community
Wait for a new group of businessmen, to chase out the residents and start again

Broken Barcodes Columbus, Ohio

Three neighborhood dads in need of a hobby, united in a quest to fend off boredom, attain unfulfilled juvenile dreams and make use of those dusty instruments, all while trying to not piss off the neighbors.

A punk band from Columbus, Ohio. Heavily inspired by 1990’s pop punk, early hardcore and the Ramones.
