the people vs. riot! riot!

my band from boston's newest song.

Picture a city:
Smokestacks against a black horizon
Newsmen singing, newsmen dancing
But what're they saying?

Love like it's over:
The goldrush only brought the guns out
A grisly betrayal of our sorry tale
of a town shouted out

She who laughs last laughs longest
She who gives
Gives up the ghost

Picture a blizzard
Whitewash the sky till it's hollow
Buy my idea, sell it to me yeah
I want to eat myself alive

So far ago and long away
Waltz with the world in the pocket of your girl
She's not talking to you no more

She who laughs last laughs hardest
She who gives
Gives up the ghost

Never gonna be the one to walk away
Never gonna be there when you fall

Such a stupid thing to be mad about

I like this, a few lines that felt a little cliche. But I don't think they ruined this.

I like this bit;

She who gives
Gives up the ghost

I'd really like to hear this too. It'd be interesting.

i only have a live recording of it and it was the first time we played it live so i'll post something when we get a good demo or live recording of it.
