"St. Mary's Walk" lyrics
"St. Mary's Walk"
Claire lives up on St. Mary's Walk with her mother
I live down on Philomel by the harbor
And I hate the ocean
And I hate the ocean
And I hate the ocean, well
Claire says she'd throw me overboard then that she loves me
And she kisses me on the mouth and says I'm ugly
And I hear the ocean
And I hear the ocean
And I hear the ocean roar
The water pulls around the pier, dark and rusted
And I know the kindest face with a sailor's eyes still can't be trusted
But I feel the ocean
And I feel the ocean
And I feel the ocean swell

Radical Face - "Ghost Towns" I've got no need for open roads
'Cause all I own fits on my back
I see the world from rusted trains
And always know I won't be back
'Cause all my life is wrapped up in today
No past or future here...
Eels - "Bus Stop Boxer" I don't miss where I came from
But each night, I dream about being back home
When I wake up in the morning
I'm too tired, too tired of being alone
So I get up and go downtown
And pick me out a little...
