This Dark Town Lyrics by Moon Walker

Truth To Power

2021

You started playing on the wrong team
While we were playing a different game
You started pulling on the wrong strings
And you can pull till the levy breaks
Or spend a lifetime
Trying to heal the pain, until the moment you fade away
And then your back breaks
Underneath the weight, and your moment just slips away

Storm chaser, come back around
Stargazer, never to be found

We had to duck down
Avoiding sure despair, while you were going over our heads
We turn the lights out
Cause it's a dark, dark town and we can sleep till we all drop dead
We burn our minds out
Trying to fix mistakes, so we can drown out the bitter taste
We lay our guns down
Try to settle the stakes, cause we're all going down in flames

Storm chaser, come back around
Risk-taker, never going down
Stargazer, never to be found

There were no stars
When the earth went black
It was such a dark, dark day
And such a cold, cold night
But in this dark town
We thought we saw a sign
And it looked like
No building shelter
Just building fences
Start burning bridges and arming your defenses
More private prisons
Cancel the pensions
Exploit the tension
Ain't no need to question why this dark town didn't have a light

Bring it on
Alright

And they tell you
Pay no attention
Harbor resentment
For everyone who don't look just like you do
Communication don't mend a differece
Your civic duty is never, ever listen
This dark town ain't got no stars

Stargazer, ah
