Sanatçı: Small Towns Burn a Little Slower

albüm: Mortality as Home Entertainment


The mist is lifting to reveal an abandoned road.
Leading to a discarded train track town.
The sign still reads "rooms to let"
Even though this place has been vacant for decades.
We've been vacant for decades.
This village died with the locomotive.
Families now forged by automobiles and airplanes.
Do these things make it easier to be close?
Or effortless to leave?
These poor walls used to be called home.
But the occupants didn't bother to board them up
Before moving on to the next big thing.
These tattered sidewalks tell their stories,
And then beg for use again.
This village died with the locomotive.
Families now forged by automobiles and airplanes.
Do these things make it easier to be close?
Or effortless to leave?
Do these things make it easier to be close?
Or effortless to leave?
Children's laughter still permeates through.
Through backyards and tree-forts and tire swings.
Do these things make it easier to be close?
Or effortless to leave?
Do these things make it easier to be close?
Or effortless to leave?
Family meals give way to golden arches.
Progress has a price
And I am not sure I can flip the bill.
