This Town

I never saw it coming

You stole me heart

Right before my eyes

Then just left it

On the ground like it was on fire

Rumour spread you said

It'll go off like a landmine

I should've seen it coming

A freight train to the chest

Can only cause pain

You drove it around my town

To paint me with a bad name

I haven't been back

Yet now baby that's a damn shame

Someday the water it will run

To wash away what has been done

So you set fire to it all

Threw the keys out

And looked the doors

The preacher had these final

Words to say

We've gathered here to set in stone

Where the devil took your soul

And This Town won't ever

Be the same again

I should've seen it coming

You only shone your light

On me when I was onstage

And like a has-been actor going

For his next play

The only role I got

Was a sidekick on a matinee

Someday the water it will run

To wash away what has been done

So you set fire to it all

Threw the keys out

And looked the doors

The preacher had these final

Words to say

We've gathered here to set in stone

Where the devil took your soul

And This Town won't ever

Be the same again

Someday the water it will run

To wash away the damage done

Someday the water it will run

To wash away the damage done

Fire Fire yeah

So you set fire to it all

Threw the keys out

And looked the doors

The preacher had these final

Words to say

We've gathered here to set in stone

Where the devil took your soul

And This Town won't ever

Be the same again

And This Town won't ever

Be the same again

And This Town won't ever

Be the same again

And This Town won't ever be the same
