Lyrics

Farewell Ghost Town



OLD SHOES ON MY FEET (Leger)

Rainbows don't seem to do very much

For your plastic exterior walls

When I kept a box of your thoughts

They were just distortions of happiness

Tread on

I'm sending astray any situation

Of earlier days

Balled up confusion and areas grey

I yearn to forget that women's ways

The old shoes on my feet

They're all I have

I can't throw them away

Old shoes on my feet

Remember everything

I recall tall tales on the street

That my jealousy has gotten to me

And I'm learning skills in order to defeat

A burden on my heart

I feel like a ship in the sea

I'm blinding my eyes

And grinding my teeth

Over the edge your picture's gonna drown

Now almost all of you is gone

chorus

I'm reminded of our starring roles

I was the comic and you were cold

And now I'm more lost and broke

So lost and broke

chorus
