英文摇滚乐：Radical Face - Ghost Towns
时间：2019-02-18 作者：英语课 分类：英文摇滚歌曲
Ben Cooper is more than just a musician: he’s a storyteller, and a good one at that. Cooper, who previously 1 was one-half of Electric President, brings his voice to the table as Radical 2 Face and has now completed the second installation of his musical trilogy, The Family Tree.
The Family Tree centers around Cooper’s fascination 3 with history, genealogy 4 and fictional 5 events. Although the story of the Northcotes is more mythology 6 than history, Cooper has taken elements from people in his life to create this musical story.
歌词：
Song：Ghost Towns
Artist：Radical Face
I've got no need for open roads
'Cause all I own fits on my back
I see the world from rusted trains
And always know I won't be back
'Cause all my life is wrapped up in today
No past or future here
If I find my name's no good
I just fall out of line
But I miss you
But there's no comin' home
There's no comin' home
With a name like mine
I still think of you
But everyone knows
Yeah everyone knows
If you care then let it go
I've seen more places than I can name
And over time they all start to look the same
But it ain't that truth we chase
No, it's the promise of a better place
But all this time, I've been chasin' down a lie
And I know it for what it is
But it beats the alternatives
So I'll take the lie
I still miss you
There's no goin' home
There's no goin' home
With a name like mine
I still dream of you
But everyone knows
Yeah everyone knows
If you can, let it go
