There are ghosts that walk the streets of this town |
|
And a lot of folks have been dying just to keep them around |
|
I ain't lost and I sure as hell ain't found |
|
By the looks of things it might just rain all night |
|
And we'll be stuck here with no bottles just trying to survive |
|
Using fishing wire to build a paper kite |
|
Dodging power lines just fending off the night |
|
So I got up and I got drunk |
|
And then I got down on my luck |
|
Seems ever since you left me I've been swinging |
|
from a tree high above |
|
Where I've been looking down on love |
|
It's been a long time since we talked but I ain't changed |
|
And as much as I ain't changed I'm not the same |
|
So we talked a while and never mentioned our religions |
|
I never told her how her god has got me down |
|
How the word just ain't been something that I've found |
|
By the looks of things it might just rain all night |
|
And if we're stuck here with no bottles |
|
Then we might as well get high |
|
Using razor blades to cut out both our eyes |
|
So when the morning comes we still won't see the light |
|
So I got up and I got drunk |
|
And then I got down on my luck |
|
Seems ever since you left me I've been swinging |
|
from a tree high above |
|
Where I've been looking down on love |
|
It's been a long time since we talked but I ain't changed |
|
And as much as I ain't changed I'm not the same |
