Lyrics:
This night is opaque
Spills out and it's spreading like paint
Every city; 18th and k
Blue blackens the grey
And money is safe
Shell game under scaffolded shapes
Ghost town ends anonymous day
Again you've arrived late
and all alone
The exorcism you once craved now
Like a mechanism set in place.
Where can you go?
Your history's erased
When everything here is new
Who will remember you?
We're drunk on the changing view
Played just where we fell
I think we might die in this shell
Know well that we're shedding new ghosts
Like dying skin cells
Vibrating without sympathy
Resonating like an empty glass
And when we break, these ghosts sing softly:
"You can be replaced."
When everything here is new
Who will remember you?
We're drunk on the changing view
Now everything here is new
10 years ago
10 years ago
10 years ago
10 years ago
11 years ago
