Hangtown

Lyrics

Look out beyond the spreading shadows
see how they move
if you could live to see tomorrow
there’s nothing to choose

back when the rats fled out of the city
the rich folks came too
and now they stalk us in the dark
coming for you
coming for me
coming for you
coming for me
they’re coming for you

they came with flags, seeking protection
their smiles were masks
first came the fences
then the executions
then feasting on flesh

For all their lives, had more than they needed
these soul-sucking fools
so now what’s left, they turn to death
won’t settle for less
they turned to death
wont settle for less
they turned to death
wont settle for less

cannibals
cannibals

the scent of death proceeds their arrival
like smoke through the years
poor old man lies alone in his chair
sleeping there

coming for me
they’re coming for you
coming for me
they’re coming for you

cannibals
cannibals
cannibal millionaires
cannibal millionaires
