Two Little Ghosts

from Megacoustic III by The Mega Yeah

/

lyrics

Sometimes I pretend that outside of my house is my old street.
I can hear the traffic and I can feel the pulse of the canal.
It's raging through the concrete underneath my feet.
I left the grave to greet the city with Katie.

We walked through some of my old haunts and my spots.
Even passed the corner that used to be my old bus stop.
Like Christmas lights in Manayunk, they never go out.
And I can see them from my house.

Tonight I played the songs of my youth
with the milkman who wrote them all.

We sat in your car like two little ghosts
who hardly remember being alive.
We sat in your car like two little ghosts
dragging chains across the night.

I didn't see any cigar-shaped flying ships.
There was nothing in the backyard landing.
But the secret to life is just a feeling.
I came to life in the town I'd die in.

Tonight I walked through a town I grew up in
with a soul I knew then.

We walked along the canal like two little ghosts
in a town I used to haunt.
We walked all the way down like two little ghosts
in a town my heart forgot.

It's been so fucking long since I have been here at all.
The world still bends around this bright city lights like stars.
And I got stuck in another soul rotation.

I dig my skin back in the grave to feel the dirt,
only the cold on this Earth against my heart can lift this curse.
It felt so good to be back home again.
I was in the car when the plums kicked in.

Tonight I went back to the old town.
The morning spent on your porch
with coffee, god, and cigarettes

We talked all night long like two little ghosts.
hanging onto every word we said.
We stayed up all night like two little ghosts
kicking through the dirt of the dead.
