We gave it try and we wrote down the possible lyrics for the song. There are some question marks here and there, so we’re really curious what we’re going to find in the official booklet. If LP ever decides to release it, that is. (And let’s be honest, we never said it if anyone asks, but this song should be out, damn it.)

To go with the lyrics, there’s also a set of all available performances of “Dead Town.” For a lack of a better word – enjoy.

DEAD TOWN – POSSIBLE LYRICS

I see your ghost
tell me what you feel, feel, feel
did that door close
and was it real, real, real

oh, just behind the looking glass
bottles breaking on my path
people staring at me all the time
oh, sending shivers down my spine
bodies aching in decline
just a little poison in my mind

I let this dead town
swallow me down
dead town
dead town
she left me out
let me get drowned
dead town
dread town, oh

I’m letting go
follow me close, close, close
I’m all alone
carry me home, home, home

oh, just behind the looking glass
bottles breaking on my path
people staring at me all the time
oh, sending shivers down my spine
bodies aching in decline
just a little poison in my mind

I let this dead town
swallow me down
dead town
dead town
she left me out
let me get drowned
dead town
dread town [?*]

*It would seem that, depending on the performance, she often interchanges “dead town” with “dread town” as well as changing these second lines entirely to “drop down.” We believe she may still be playing with the lyrical composition pending her official release.
