Last Call 04:01
I follow you I follow your steps You take the same ones every day Then you forget You used to have secrets To take to the grave You wanna remember It’s all fading away You wanna remember But the feeling is gone You wanna remember But it’s last call I got information I don’t understand Your body is breakin They keep saying You wanna remember What we already know You wanna remember So give us a show And now they’re calling your name So do this the right way Cuz the charts say We can’t stop the bleedin or the breakin But we need you to keep playin Cause we all remember So you don’t have to remember At the first drop, when you light up, and our hearts stop And I remember your secrets Your beautiful secrets They’re so twisted and I love it It’s your best shit, can you hear it (and I’ll keep it) The young drunks are callin your name The young drunks are callin your name They’re calling your name And it’s last call And their cleanin But the young drunks They ain’t leavin They’re callin your name I follow you I follow your steps I remember I remember

Good Doctor 04:14
Her head against the wall Her hand across her mouth Everybody’s watching No one helps her out Obey the doctor’s orders as we fill our lives with ease When everybody’s watching he’ll do anything you please Chorus You see a man who looks like someone from TV He takes her hand and tells her I will bring relief You’re truly nothing special But you’re better than the rest You see when everybody’s watching You be at your very best When everybody’s watching you’ll do anything he says When everybody’s watching, your life’s a total mess Bridge He tells you I’m your doctor Just do everything I say You’re truly nothing special But someone’s gotta pay Don’t you worry about it later I’ll set your mind at ease You see when everybody’s watching Trust me I’m your doctor You see a man who looks like someone from TV He takes her hand and tells her I will bring relief I am all you need So be a doll just take these pills Trust me I’m your doctor And I will bring relief I am all you need I’m a good doctor

New Disaster 03:29
Every time I wake up in the morning I pray I’ll figure out something to do with my day Nothing’s more depressing than my kitchen sink I could clear it out, but really what would that bring? I’ve been told that home is where your heart can rest But now I’m just living in my own fucking mess Call me in denial Call me what you please You know that everyone here would agree I don’t give a damn about it It’s not like I did before Get ready for new disasters Get ready to lose control Uh Oh Here’s a situation where you made me the fool When you introduced me to that other girl She’s staring at you She’s laughing at me You know that everyone here would agree You don’t give a damn about it It’s not like you did before Get ready for new disasters Get ready to lose control Uh Oh You don’t give a damn about me It’s not like you did before Get ready for new disasters Get ready for the wrecking ball Why do you do this to me? What are you looking for? Maybe I’m entertaining Maybe I need damage control Uh Oh

Ghost Town 03:46
It’s all so magical in your head Take the car for ride Leave it all behind This town will hold you here And you’ll spend all your years Hypnotized by your own failure Carried by the dreams you had for me I finally took a stand Tried not to give a damn I couldn’t catch a break Everyone here knows my name Do you what you always do Drink until you’re beautiful I was a mess The moment we met You brought me to life Just hanging around You weren’t impressed You were just passing through Another dead ghost town No need to tell me what I said It’s always bothered you My changing point of view Who knows how things will be? Why don’t you come with me? I couldn’t answer you So close to losing you I was a mess The moment we met You brought me to life Just hanging around You weren’t impressed You were just passing through Another dead ghost town I was a mess I never left Still hanging around Where I met you

about

The Ghost Town EP is a condensed journey of stagnation, rebirth, and disappointment. New Disaster has vocals by all Poor Eliza band members! When sung live, Ice Cream Song is interspersed with audience members calling out various flavors of icecream. Please feel free to do the same when listening in your car or at home.
