This Town Lyrics

Fifteen fortune seekersFound a new place they call homeBeneath the old gasoline stationWhere the railway starts to flowOut of this town whereThe heroes hide awayWhere kids grow up to tell their partOf the hometown storyMany years they went out toWhere no one else will findFaith became their castleTill the ground was set on fireSummer turned to winterFriends became enemiesThe change of seasons took its standIn the hometown storyThen came the rainThen came the nightThe street looked like a mirrorTook them to the other sidePromises were holyLife was all aroundI guess there?s nothing left for themIn the backstreets of this townWho?s the one who clears your eyesWhen tears can?t hide the pain?Who?s the one you run toWhen the whole town calls your name?Who will be your fireWhen the mirror starts to freeze?The truth is hard to find between the linesIn the hometown storyThen came the rainThen came the nightThere ain?t no more fortune leftBeyond the other mirror sideThen on the mainstreetSnow came falling downThere?s so much left for you and meIn the backstreets of this townThose last few days, we didn?t takeThe time to speak our mindsSome of us they learned to seeWhile some of us got blindThe salt inside my eyesHurts like some memoriesThe time is right to find yourselfIn the hometown story
