lyrics

Ghost Town
V. Appleton

Hard to believe
This town once was mine
Her chords and her rhythms
Her omens her signs
The forms and the figures
The faces the eyes
The takers the givers
The lows and the highs

The debt, the dues
The smoke and the booze
Mothers and lovers
The friends and the fools
They stand now before me
They all gather round
To escort me through
My lovely ghost town


Up & down
These streets and these hills
My tales tumble
Like so much wine spills
They pour down the pavement
And dry in the sun
Just stains on the sidewalk
All that we’ve done

The girl that you worked with
Parnassus and Cole
Your house in the Mission
That necklace we stole
The roof that we slept on
The freeway we sped
The warehouse we jammed in
The lives that we led

No regrets
No call for confession
No regrets
No tears in the glass
I can’t forget the way that you loved me
The blood, skin, sweat
The smell of the past

The veiled, the used
The coke and the ‘ludes
Mothers turned lovers
Friends turned to fools
They stand now before me
They all gather round
To escort me through
My lovely ghost town
