Ghost of Potsdam Town

Mary D. will you wait for me across the sea for my return?
Will you cut your hair in no underwear by the darkened glare of our room?
Your hands touching the ceiling, and falling back on your bed
Made up in your prom dress with nobody to date
I'll stay around - The Ghost of Potsdam town, and Mary I won't drown this time I swear
Just don't go astray, I am on my way
I'll meet you there in the back row
Mary D. will you marry me? We'll watch our feet dance silently

No Heart's a Wasteland
01:57

Laid down to sleep, years will pass till flowers grow from the tears you weep
Planted in the soil, we all share our bodies with the one we came from
No-one's a wasteland, no-one's a wasteland
There's no mistakes, no regrets should fall upon your worrying head
We are all the same and given time we all shall go back to our first state
Your heart will break under the constant weight
Your heart will break and your body will ache
Your heart will see that it's fertile ground
No heart's a wasteland
It's just sad

Baby, My Baby

Baby, my baby, my love for you is pure
Don't leave me in the dark, don't hide me in your shadows and watch me fall apart
I'm hanging from the gallows and as I slowly die I wonder was it worth it to make each other cry?
Baby, my baby, my love for you is pure
I felt it yesterday and I will again tomorrow, this aching deep inside, this sadness and this sorrow
But standing by its side I see the warm embraces from the happy times and all of your beautiful faces
So think of me fondly and try to just remember that what is and what will be isn't what it always was
So I guess I'm saying sorry for all the shit I've done
I'll keep it in my heart, I'll keep you in my heart

Save my soul, save my soul, set me on fire.

I met you in your bedroom, I asked you where your loo was
You said something insulting, I don't quite remember
I had been heartbroken when I went to your house
So I got drunk on beer and music when I went to your house
We climbed up to the roof but it was too high for you
We went out to a bar, you went home, I was rude to you all night
So I kissed a girl called Sarah. Who knew that would be the start?

Keep Pretending
01:21
|
|||
I can't be only your only your only, I can't be only your only your only
I feel alot inside and I have no place to hide
So keep on pretending that you really love me and I'll keep pretending that you're thinking of me
When I know better inside
I know better

By the Gaslight
02:32
|

I remember Dean saying that he liked you
I went outside and smoked another cigarette by The Gaslight in front of your headlights
Music played by the White Stripes
We still had time to go before the skies turned cold
Keep on getting wasted, I'll keep on getting old
I try to hold breath until your return but drowning in love is hard to unlearn
When crushed by blackness the hopeful pessimist taunts at the spirits for truthful spilt secrets
I keep on wishing on hopeless faded suns
That died long before I met you but kept their body whole
Hearts laid to rest and sleeping on stories left untold
We'll keep on getting wasted, we'll keep on getting old

Keepsakes
02:18
|
|||
I try to leave your heart well alone, I try to shield my love from where it used to know
But every now and then I forget and drunkenly wander back to my old home
Time falls from my pockets and dreams sleep far beneath
I ask if it’s good fortune to have a memory 'cause moving on is hard when you don’t want to leave the past
So forgive my moments of weakness, I am stronger the rest of the time
And keep me locked outside your fortress, I don’t really want to come back inside
But your walls are stronger than the ones that I have built
And I can’t help but admire the one who placed the brick
