Jeffrey Foucault - Left This Town lyrics

Artist: Jeffrey Foucault

album: Salt as Wolves


I left this town
With the throttle open wide
The heater was blowing
But nothing inside
Could ember the darkness
Or swallow my pride
When I left this town
I was running
I left this town
With the milk and the fire
A rattling hollow
Itinerant choir
That cut me and called me
And held me entire
When I left this town
I was gunning
You couldn't understand
What I wanted
No one could hold my hand
And make it alright
Born into the land of the dead
I was haunted
But I could hear the ghosts
Singing on the other side
I left this town
With the blood and the wine
A rooster was crowing
My mama was crying
For everything born
There's another one dying
When I left this town
I was done in
You couldn't say my name
You didn't know it
You thought it was just a game
I was gambling my life
You said you felt the same
I said why don't you show it
And I left you standing in the dust
By the highway side
