lyrics

Haunt

take this town, girl
take this town
it won't buy you no time when your last hour chimes
but at least then you'll know where you're going

i've gone out searching for something i lack
got a chip on my shoulders, pack on my back
my feet are killing me and a cold breath is chilling me but
where i'm going there's no turning back

the bets are high the slopes are steep
been thirty miles, boy, ten more before i sleep
some people hold blades and others warm spaces
but they all hold skulls in their laughing faces cuz
there ain't nothing you can keep

nothing you can keep
oooh

all cities are the same
all cities are the same
they're full of people playing that game
yeah all cities are to blame

so keep on searching for that flame, boy
keep on searching for that flame
cuz when the joker comes to stake his claim
you won't be wearing nothing but your name

nothing but your name
oooh

take this town, girl
take this town
it won't buy you no time when your last hour chimes
but at least then you'll know where you're going

but at least then you'll know where you're going
said at least then you'll know where you're going
it might your heaven and it might be your hell
when you get you going stories to tell

stories to tell
oooh
