lyrics

Forget yourself and stay awhile,
this can’t be worse than you expected.
You’ve got such a cynic smile,
so bright and disconnected.

Don’t be like the others,
they always said to me.
You should be something better,
and don’t look back.
But what’s the difference between us,
it all looks the same to me,
when you’re down and out.

Are you moving to the city,
leave the unwashed far behind,
maybe settle in the suburbs,
white fences like security lines.

Don’t be like the others,
they always said to me.
You should be something better,
and don’t look back.
But what’s the difference between us,
it all looks the same to me,
when you’re screaming out.

Don’t be like the others,
they always said to me.
You should be something better,
and don’t look back.
But what’s the difference between us,
it all looks the same to me,
when you’re down and out.

East Ghost Washington D.C., D.C.

Themes of distance, distortion, and a loss of connection with the people around us pervades much of their material; songs that reflect the feeling that we are surrounded yet separated, living a temporal, ghostly existence.
