Blackened walls and Crooked doorways Flooded streets Ghosts of the old days This was our town we built with our hands
He's a stranger She's the one he wants She tried to sleep Inside the roomy arms Lights are flickering, raging midnight
He's walking streets Inside an endless fog Searching hard for any tracks Of those who've chosen wrong Inside the sound of drunken laughter
Booze was flowing Three cheers for me and you A toast to all of us And everything that we do Our yellow light surrounded by a deep, dark sky
But later in the night Through the corner of my eye I saw shadows moving by Heard a rumbling outside Keep the music going, man We've got each other, we'll be fine
And we sang Nevermind the morning time The party's never coming There's still so much For us to do tonight The spirits in our bottles Mix with sprits in our hearts And take us over
The wind was howling And we would laught it off Rain was filling up the streets Mildew and dry rot The silent prowler welcomed everything
The day, it broke And woke a tired town Bloodshot eyes Looked on our stomping ground They knew this was where it ended
The law, they came around The banners all came down And we left our little town To the angels Time is writing angels into demons And they've dragged me down Time is writing angels into demons And they follow me around
