Death Town Moonshine lyrics

Down a broken road past the last dim light Where the crows don't fly and the sun won't rise There's a town they whisper, don't say its name But I took one step, and I ain't the same Graves like teeth in the rotten ground And a hollow choir makes a distant sound I was thirsty, shaking, half outta mind Till I found that jar, that death town shine Black glass bottle, cold as sin Heard a voice say boy, let me in I drank that Death Town Moonshine Now the dead walk right beside mine Hear 'em sing in the pale moonlight Ain't no sleep on the other side Death Town Moonshine, burning slow Feel my heartbeat start to go If you taste it once, you'll never leave Now the graveyard's got its hold on me Saw a lady dressed in mourning black Soft as silence but her eyes stared back Said: Don't you fear, I don't bring pain Then she smiled like death knew my name Chains don't rattle, they hum real low Like a lullaby from down below Every sip pulls me deeper in Till I can't tell life from where I've been Cold hands resting on my skin Stay a while, let it begin I drank that Death Town Moonshine Now the dead walk right beside mine Hear 'em sing in the pale moonlight Ain't no sleep on the other side Death Town Moonshine, take my breath Every drop just smells like death If you hear 'em call, don't you reply Or you'll never make it out alive Voices crawling through my head Join the quiet, join the dead No more pain and no more fear Just their song forever near I tried to run but my legs won't move Roots in my veins like a buried truth That shine ain't drink, it's a cursed key Now Death Town's door, is inside of me I drank that Death Town Moonshine Now I'm something left behind Hear me sing in the pale moonlight Another soul lost to the night Death Town Moonshine, pass it 'round Let 'em all come gather 'round Take a sip and you will see You'll be right down here with me
