From a Soon-To-Be Ghost Town

It's hard to be the last one
In a soon-to-be ghost town
When all that you loved is now gone
And you could've left with the first big wave
But you remember back to when you first came
And how you didn't wanna leave
'Cause you remembered it when
When you said you'd never leave
'Cause you loved it then

It's a hard to be queer one in a place with no queer ones
At least none who'll admit that they were
And you're sharp and coulda split
But you stayed because
At the very least you knew who you was
And you didn't wanna leave
'Cause you liked the air
And you still don't wanna leave
'Cause you like it there

Y'know it's hard to be the last one
In a soon-to-be ghost town
When all that you've loved is now gone
And you could've moved on to anywhere
But you remembered back to your first day there
On the fire escape
Smoking cigarettes
With a fresh fat lip
And a new best bet

And how you didn't wanna leave
'Cause you liked the air
And you said you'd never leave
'Cause you liked it there
And you still don't wanna leave
'Cause you loved it then
