Dead Town E.P.

The Orchard Dead Town E.P. Lyrics
1.Haggard and Hanging

Haggard and Hanging
Verse1
Head hurts but my body's worse
Drink away my pain because I know it works
Down, I'm really fucking down
I just need something to pick me up
If life was a ship I'd have jumped overboard,
Because breathing and walking is all I can afford
The darkness lifts and my mind clears
Funny how these thrills take away my fears
Verse 2
I'm seeing things in a different light
Now that black turns to grey
It's not white but it's what gets me through
Helps get me through the day,
You can't help yourself- From trying to put me down
Every time you turn my smile into a frown
Clouds of smoke filter out your face
And makes me feel like I'm free of this place.
Chorus
I've done this for so long now; I think I'm going insane
I've done this for so long now, things won't be the same


2.Dead Town

Dead Town
Verse1:
Empty streets
No sign of life
Grey sky
The cold wind bites
Nothing here
But the stench of fear
This Wasteland
That runs your life

Bridge:
Get me far away from here
Once I've gone I'll see so clear
How bad things used to be
Now I've grown this place ain't fucking me.

Chorus:
Dead Town
Condemned ground
A fucking disgrace to the Queen's crown

Dead Town
Condemned ground
A place we're better off without

Verse 2:
Break out
I'm gonna tear this place down
Win or lose
I'll burn it to the ground
Better off without, a cesspit of disease
A cancer of the land
A stain on the country

Gone into the cold black town
Your eyes won't believe the things I've found.
