True Believer

Tourists stumble down Broadway

Cumberland keeps claiming bodies

All our best memories

Were bought and then turned into apartments

The club with all the hardcore shows

Now just a greyscale Dominos

The churches overflow each Sunday greedy Sunday morning

Gift shop in the lobby

Act like God ain't watching

Kill the soul, turn a profit

What lives on? Southern Gotham

I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

With my belief

And I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

Cause I'm a true believer

They put up chainlink fences underneath the biggest bridges

They pose in Christmas cards with guns as big as all their children

They say that Jesus is the way but then they gave him a white face

So they don't have to pray to someone they deem lesser than them

The South will not rise again

Til it's paid for every sin

Strange fruit, hard bargain

Till the roots, Southern Gotham

I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

With my belief

And I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

Cause I'm a true believer

I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

With my belief

And I'm the one who still loves your ghost

I reanimate your bones

Cause I'm a true believer
