This Bitter Town

Welcome to the garden
The flowers died long ago
All that’s left is poison ivy
It strangles anything that grows

This bitter town

Welcome to my nightmare
When you wake up
You’ll despair

This bitter town

You can get anything you want
If you know this town
You will lose everything you’ve got
If you stick around

Welcome to the city
The writing’s on the wall
Time will sour your feelings
The words will say it all

This bitter town

Welcome to my town
Wake up
Don’t stick around

This bitter town
