The Dead South - 96 Quite Bitter Beings Lyrics

With my perceptions in a mix
Down twenty miles through the sticks
To the cloudy town of Hellview, Population ninety-six

Excessive vacancy, well maybe
In the shadow of an eye
All the strangers pass through
Where the rules just don't apply

At the fork turn left a store but
On the right stay free from sight
'Cause ninety-six quite bitter beings
Like to stack the bodies high

The only way to ever leave is
Overflooded by the storm
And entanglement in Hellview
Brings you fear in fifty forms

(They've deleted all the tourists)
(At the bottom of the lake)

And not one supports the cause
To leave the blood stay in the veins

Here, three miles back is where we are
All we ever wanted was an answer
Civilized are close but way too far
All we ever wanted was an answer

Footprints giving clue to where we are
All we ever wanted was an answer
Civilized are close but way too far
All we ever wanted

Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
