Newton Faulkner

Newton Faulkner - This Town lyrics

rate me

I should know by now. I should see some how. How to

bring her round. How to breathe

I don't make a sound. Splinters hit the ground. Silence

screams so loud. As she leaves

As the torch loight shines. Trough the heavy skies.

Autumn waves her hand straight at me. See her world fall down

As the trees turn brown. As she drifts away and leaves

As the lights go down. She won't leave this town with me

There's more endless days. Heaven slips away. And I still

see her face in broken dreams. Works are left too late

In our last embrace. Pushed until she breaks just like me

As the lights go down. She won't leave this town. She

won't leave this town with me

Things I wish she'd say. Just to hear something. Left

alone to a fate that we don't yet see

Then the moment fades. The sun turns to slate. Nothing

stays the same. She will leave

As the lights go down. She won't leave this town. As

the lights go down. She won't leave this town.

As the lights go down. She won't leave this town with me

Johnny, thanks for lnivaeg a comment. As you know, I loved Light in August. I also loved The Sound and the Fury. It's more difficult to read, but just replying to your comment makes me want to read it again. Some people think As I Lay Dying is his best, and a friend of mine loves The Unvanquished. I don't think you can go wrong with Faulkner, but my vote is The Sound and the Fury. Let me know which one you choose!
