Ghosts of A Ghost Town

from SickSongs by Ngajuana

lyrics

Uh, I've seen things, I've done things, dumb things,
Wife just left, now the only ring gun rings,
Some things are just too much,
Killed a whole town once, came through and fucked shit up,
I mean, orders are what orders are,
Sorta scarred, came home to some sorta star,
Sorta starved, now, see it in my neck and pecs,
But that don't worry me, what worry me got me obsessed,
There was a room I never checked, check is this thing on?
That shit been nagging me, dragging me down, persisting on,
Put down the pencils, I stenciled it out, the noose is drawn,
I'm just a nuisance, I knew since, my new sin, loosing bombs,
Duty got me doing wrongs, wrong in my fucking brain,
Fuck insane, but I'm not really fuckin' sane, shame,
Had some promise, but it's down the drain,
I'm drained, the downers, keep me washed, though, keep down the pain, pain.

Uh, gather round, lift your cups, to the war party,
No gangstas here, Corleone's or Gottis,
Cause bullets make us die the same,
Bullets, bullets, bullets, make, all our mothers cry the same, I'm just saying..

Swinging from the noose, roof creaking as I contemplate,
Responsive still, guess I need to concentrate,
Trying to die or reach at least catatonic state,
Married to the void, under-joyed, til we consummate,
Uh, Until then, I'm haunted, so I commentate,
Slimmer every day, slowly simmer, like a consommé,
Skipped breakfast, missed lunch, uh, sinner is served,
Bone thin, getting thinner, cause my innards disturbed,
- Just one survivor's a catastrophe,
Deeds done dastardly, can cause a mind to atrophy,
Ghosts of a ghost town, gross, even grosser up close,
Dead postman and grocers and hopes,
Cops, even kids, even hospitals, no more,
Casualties of no war, try to wrap your head around it,
Picture five miles of track, now wrap the dead around it,
5 times, no way you can tread around it, food for thought.
