lyrics

There’s been an accident something that this town will never forget
there is fire on the harbor and blood on the ground
the foundry blew up on the dark side of town
this town already burnt down along time ago
the tar ran like water and the ash fell like snow
now the rust line on the shore line just goes to show
it’s rotting out from the inside
a cancerously crippled giant waiting to die
and it follows you, follows you, follows you round
try not you can’t shake this tired ghostly town
Do you remember those rail road woods
that played secret hideout for the whole neighborhood?
and the times that we had there were just so damn good
could they’ve really happened at all?
Like a drunk to the bottle like a moth to the flame
like a widow to weep, like a gambler to game
I am drawn back here again and again
I cannot rest til I lie
once again by that dying giant’s side
and it follows me, follows me, follows me round
try not I can’t shake this tired ghostly town
