Lyrics

This town's ablaze or so I'm told
Smoke coming from the radio
This town's a mess but no-one speaks
It's on your breath like a fresh mint, honey

'Cause there's a killer's face on the front page
And a best and fairest half our age
And they call it news but it ain't the truth
It's just a dangerous wave
That we're swimming through

Miriam says she's madly in love
With the town I'm growing up in

'Cause there's a killer's face on the front page
And a best and fairest half our age
And they call it news but it ain't the truth
It's a dangerous wave
That we're swimming through

What the hell do I tell my boy
About the sad, ugly, white noise?
I'll say
"Son, don't learn to speak…
And never lose sight of the palm trees"

Miriam says she's madly in love
With the town I'm growing up in

We ain't got mountains we got hills
Sure like the sound of sleeping pills
Because it's NYE and this town's asleep
Remember the way that you believed
Back when you were fifteen?
You poured concrete in the creek

Miriam says she's madly in love
With the town I'm growing up in
