lyrics

spires, towers, spinning lights
lines are dotted red and white
mazes, gridlock, open eyes
scenic view of hard pressed lies

open windows, shot gun shells
burned up pages, ringing bells
a tarnished coin, an empty well
a father’s daughter’s prison cell

smoke is rising, burning white
heat colliding with the night (knife)
a hundred names a thousand sighs
get emptied out into the sky

smoke and songs are burning bright
mingling with the blue midnight
chimneys stand like sentinels
sending out choice cannonballs

the night is breathing in the sound
mixed up, furious, and loud
voices rise up to the clouds
like a swirling, violent crown

the wind is blowing on the hill
shaking curtains, whistling shrill
the age old story, of the old mill
thin cigarettes are burning still

an open wound, a family name
a farewell souvenir in flames
a lover’s shattered window pane
an old man’s smiling worn-out game

four walls on that crooked lane
four walls filled with four last names
four lives and four hurricanes
four young faces board a train
