Down - Ghosts Along The Mississippi (Down II:A Bustle In Your Hedgerow)

Lyrics:


In the morning, it takes me quite a while to clear my head
And as the day moves on, I find it hard to smile at something said
So I took control, priority number one, and that's me
Then I cut the dragon's head off, and put away my gun, so let it be
So let it be

I'm dying prematurely, I'm wasting my life for sure
I'm trying to kill what's wrong with me
A ghost along the Mississippi

I never thought before, a life could be so strange, but it is
And I guess my one a day, became ten or twelve or more, and more
But I've got a gift, it's something called my friends or love
With them and I combined, I'll beat an early end, it's been done before

No time of passing away, of losing just one more day
I'm trying to kill what's happening to me
A ghost along the Mississippi

Can't happen to me
Won't do it to me
Can't happen to me
Won't do it to me
Can't happen to me
Won't do it to me

Destroying what's got ahold of me
No more the ghost of Mississippi

My favorite Down song.

[TheTrooper9169666]

Holy fuck - yet another master-piece from this band... I listen to A LOT of music and rarely it happens - that a song blows me away on the first listening, but that happened with this song, Stone the Crow, Lifer, Temptation's Wings and Losing All, instant all time favorites...
