about

lyrics

As I walk these old, forsaken, disregarded streets
Trees in my mind’s eye, holding on to their last leafs
No one really enters here and no one really leaves
The houses frozen skeletons of unresolved grief

This is a ghost town

The churches on the avenue, they slowly lose their paint
The walls are there to separate the sinners from the saints
The people here are cornered by the lines they drew themselves
The children are the echoes of the relics that are delved

This is a ghost town…
And it’s giving up the ghost

No ascending wings to be found, no enlightenment
No damn way to shower off this old, unpleasant scent
No one hold a candle up and no one leads the way
No renaissance ambassadors to welcome a new day

This is a ghost town…
And it’s giving up the ghost

The stones that form your walls
Could also make your halls
The stones you use to throw around
The foundations of a higher ground

All these fading footsteps, how they simply symbolize
The lack of growth, progression and political device
The gazes from a distance, but up close: avoiding looks
The burning of the library and science in your books

This is a ghost town…
And it’s giving up the ghost
The ghost
