I can't go home
where there's nothing left of the good things that I used to know
and it's a sad game trying to hold onto old flames
when friends are just fires that burn out more slowly
it's such a sham
just getting respect for being the person that I am
why should I care when the world is a hoax and my loved ones are ghosts
why even try if I'm just an impersonation of a lie
one more long ride
to the house where I grew up to give it one final goodbye
and she keeps screaming they're taking it away from me
these fires in chimneys and all of these dimly lit streets
Stumbled across this great band because of Martha the band and I just love their sometimes melancholy garage-sound.
Also I like the acoustic songs.
I still remember seeing them live in my hometown when they were touring with Erica Freas and asked them for a setlist to have something to remember the great concert.
It´s hanging on my wall since that day :) Ninehundredninetynine
