lyrics

Ghost Town

She's writing secret messages
on bathroom walls to people
that she doesn't know.
Every night is Saturday;
she's all in black,
she in the back
at every show.

And she's so lonely
but she knows true love is out there
she's not the only one that thinks so
as she wraps her legs around
another one night only romance.

He's the last remaining gentleman
a remnant of a rennassaince
that never was.
Every day is Sunday
cuz he always does the right thing,
he's his Mother's son.

And he's so lonely
but he knows true love is out there,
he's not the only one that thinks so,
but the girls in black are vacant
and the women are so cold.

Calling all you disillusioned
I know there's room for improvement
lower your black cloak of hopelessness.
Don't ever hang your head,
Don't let it get you down,
Though we're the living dead
Let's haunt eachother in a ghost town.

Johnny Northrup: vocals, bass, keys, synths, baritone guitar, acoustic and slide guitar
Q: drums, percussion
Alex Hartman: engineering, mix, farfisa, percussion
Michael Gowell: texture guitar

You're Better Than This

This album fucks as hard as dripping and magic but imo feels the most personal and emotional release of the three. It’s weird and frantic but hits this really interesting balance. jude
