Из альбома: No Such Place

I like to go out walking in the ghost-town of my brain
Kick the rusted scrap-iron of my memories and dreams
Yeah, here's a busted compasslook, the needle's standing still
Much as some folks hate to lose their way, me, I pray to God that I will
I got a confession; I never ever had no appetite for pain
So it's a mystery to me why I like walking in the ghost-townghost-town of my brain
I'm on a coal train headed south, guess we're bound for Birmingham
Thick as thieves with a black girl twice as messed-up as I am
The smile upon her face betrays the sorrow in her heart
Like the testimony of a fun house mirror that some fool broke apart
Girl listen here; you're just a leaf caught in God's secret hurricane
And on this cold and dark wild midnight you are dancing in the ghost-townghost-town of my brain
Feel them magnets in the shadows?
Hear the voice of tranger virtue?
Take no comforts with them specters 'cause you know that they can hurt you
Sweet mother load of secrets, feed my wild and endless hunger
Seek the misty trail beyond the veil where the world gets torn asunder
Gimme needles in the haystacks, Lord and riddles in the rain
'cause I like to go out walking in the ghost-townghost-town of my brain
