from I Am A Ghost Town, released December 25, 2021
I was just a young boy yesterday or so
Now I am a ghost town buried in the snow
I can see the future, and I don't want to go
No one there beside me, wandering alone
Talking in the mirror, answering echoes
This is all a nightmare, one that I have sewn on my own accord

Shot ten dead on the way to Roanoke
Hopped instead on a wayward locomotive
Where have you been?

Turned my back on the bitches' crying
Burned a stack of identifying papers
Where have you been?

And with one swift pucker of her lips, a kiss resolved all of it
Yeah, I wish

Another false awakening
Praying to God, the nightmare clause won't keep me eternally
No, none of it is coming with

...and I woke in the land of the dead

Robbed the tomb of a fraud Osiris
Caught the tune of a Broadway crisis actor
Where have you been?

These walls breathe like a set of lungs
Evil is rather unbecoming
Where have you been?

And with one glimpse, all I saw dissolved to mist
In this panic, I exist

Another false awakening
Praying to God, the nightmare clause won't keep me eternally
No, none of it is making sense
