about

this was track 2 on side 2 of the Bughouse E.P.

lyrics

I wish to hell that I could leave this town.
This place is full of ghosts wearing frowns.
I sometimes think that I was born to run
If Bruce was here I’d shoot him with a gun

Well, yesterday the sea was turning black
Today the sun is shining on my back
I prayed to god and god was next to me
True believers say come unto thee,

And I as lay here on my bed
I recall exactly what she said
You’ll never get to see the end
When you say goodbye to all your friends
Just when you think you're done and through
There is always something else to do
Well, the very same day my eyes were opened wide,
Was the very same day that my whole world died.

There was a house with no front door
The lights were on no-one know for sure.
Under the moon beneath the sky
The lovers sat, began to sigh
The two dogs dressed in grey
Jumped the fence, began to play
They used to sit alone at night
Staring with their eyes all bright
They used to wait until the dawm
Say goodbye and they were gone
The tress grew and grew up tall
And later on began to fall
Well in a room all dressed in blue,
I can’t explain but I knew it was true
I can’t explain but I knew it was through
I can’t explain but I know it was through.

And as I lay here on my bed….
