lyrics

Sleepless in Larrimah
I got one eye skinned but this town's still got depth of field. Read the body language of the houses on a lean. See the garden gone to weeds where the old folks use to meet. Was there a run on the bank cause everybody here had to leave
Ring the old school bell, where the kids use to play. Hear the aural history speaking in the rustling leaves. We could stay for a while and wear out our welcome. There's an eerie kind of feeling, in middle of the night
Trespassing on a moon lit night, didn't feel so right. Take me to the well, drag the bones from the bottom, hear the stories that they have to tell. Walking lock step with a ghost from the past learning who things use to be. Maybe there's a reason that we were meant to come here but I think that it's time leave
See the broken glass where the squatters paint the walls. See the general store sign falling through the rusty iron. The unkept graves of those not brought to justice. The antiquated ink press rolling out the old gazette.
I got one foot down on the pedal, I'm in a right mind to leave. Some towns just you shivers. Spurred on by kicking heels.
