[Verse]
Shadows creeping, streets stay bare
Dust on my boots, wind in my hair
Ain't no smiles, just empty stares
In this lonesome town, where no one cares
[Chorus]
Lonesome town, where the sun won’t rise
Dreams get buried under cold, gray skies
Lonesome town, hear the crows all cry
A place where hope comes to die
[Verse 2]
Neon flickers, signs half broke
Whiskey breath, the air is soaked
Echoes of laughter, now just smoke
This lonesome town, where hearts get choked
[Prechorus]
Rusty fences, sagging ground
Lost and found, but mostly lost, in this town
[Chorus]
Lonesome town, where the sun won’t rise
Dreams get buried under cold, gray skies
Lonesome town, hear the crows all cry
A place where hope comes to die
[Bridge]
Tumbleweeds roll, secrets they keep
Past the churchyard, graves run deep
Every soul here fights for sleep
In lonesome town, where shadows creep
