    Lyrics

    ONE GIRL TOWN

    Wandering around
    this heartless town
    restless and aching to write
    a letter to you all about you
    to say that I love you
    but it’s too soon to tell

    In the haze of disguise how can I exist
    in styles, signals and signs?
    Fire trucks racing to a scene far away
    everyone’s racing
    to a scene far away

    One girl town

    Faces march by with artillery eyes
    waging a new war called doubt
    It raises the soldiers from the trenches
    of my echoing
    battle-stained past

    In this one girl town
    One girl town
    One girl town

    And the rain keeps falling
    and the sky is rarely blue

    A traffic light squints tempting my stride
    but I don’t dare a step forward
    Cowards dismantle my courage
    Seasoned destroyers
    and counterfeit friends

    Turning around a voice in the crowd
    is mine for the very first time
    pouring a sidewalk of freedom and fire
    Everything ending
    is where I begin

    And the rain keeps falling
    and the sky is rarely blue

    One girl town
    One girl town
    One girl town
    One girl town
    One girl town
