This Town Lyrics by Robert Vincent

In This Town You’re Owned

2019

[Verse 1]
In this town you've got to see their light
In this town you've got to help them fight
In this town you've got to own their pain
In this town you feel

[Verse 2]
In this town you batten down your doors
In this town you stand and defend your shores
In this town you better know you're sure
In this town you die

[Chorus 1]
You can parade in the shadow of mediocrity
Chase the light of day with your fantasies
Don't take this as a joke or even parody
In this town you're owned

[Verse 3]
You better know your friend and know your foe
You better test the water with your toe
You'd better realise one day you'll go
What was it really for?

[Verse 4]
The time you have it just spins and spins
From a faucet that reveals its sins
You'll be angry when it all sinks in
This town took your soul

[Chorus 1]
You can parade in the shadow of mediocrity
Chase the light of day with your fantasies
Don't take this as a joke or even parody
In this town you're owned

[Verse 5]
If you let it own you you'll pay the price
It's hard to count the times or to suffice
The ones who've shone but whose souls have gone
In this town you're owned

[Verse 6]
There is a page of this book
There are a number of angles you could look
It's surprising how long we took
Before it came to this

[Chorus 2]
So you parade in your sense of mediocrity
Misuse the light of your fantasies
Don't notice your fate or even see
In this town you're owned
