I took a walk, down by the water I laid it down, I was looking for someone like you (What was I supposed to do) A heavy heat out on the corner, You laid it down, but all I could do was fold (I never knew you told) Chorus: And though this feeling's growing, You have a funny way of showing, You're not the same girl, Anne Your days are getting stranger, But you don't recognize the danger, I've got you where I want you Verse: A heavy heat out on the corner I laid it down, but all you could do was fold (I never knew you told) I took a walk, down by the water And laid it down, I was looking for someone like you (What was I supposed to do) Chorus: And though this feeling's growing You have a funny way of showing You're not the same girl, Anne These days are getting stranger, But you don't recognize the danger, I've got you where I want you.

Wind is blowin', tree limbs are falling down, I can hear something's rustlin' out there and we're miles from town Moon is lit up, sun is just a dream Better get moving, if you know what I mean Chorus: There's no point in waiting, my heart is racing Full moon is our only light There's no way of knowing , which way we're going But if we run now we could make it out alive Verse: The further we go, the less hopeful I am There's glowing eyes in those bushes, but I don't want to look back at them There's a werewolf howling, looks like he's changed his skin He's a growlin', and snarlin', his breathe stinks of bathtub gin Chorus: Run for your life from this terrible night, I only thought that this happened in books Was right behind you, and now I can't find you I can hear it but I can't stand to look

Eyes 05:51
There was a fire, and there was you, and it that fire was two Down in the ocean, down through the waves, I've been lost at sea for days I thought I saw you come up for air But when I looked no one was there Chorus: And I don't need it everyday, I just watched it wash away And sometimes people loose their mind, it happens all of the time Verse: There was a beacon, a lonely light, but it got shut by the night Eyes in the lighthouse, eyes in the sea, I've been lost inside a dream I thought I saw you come up for air, but when I looked no one was there Chorus: And I don't need it every day, I just watched you wash away And sometimes people, loose their mind, it happens all of the time

I can feel this turning, into something good If I could go back, you know I would The moon is turning, you did your part I can see things clearer, walking in the dark I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you x4 Chrous: And I can hear it calling, every now and then Girl you've been running, for too long my friend Verse: a knife in the water, blood on the wall I think I can hear him, coming down the hall And baby I can feel you, then it's gone We can't outrun this, now it won't be long I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you x4 Chorus: And I'm in the kitchen, feeling low There's something creeping, don't leave me alone Verse: I can feel this turning, into something good And if I could go back, you know I would And baby I can feel you, then it's gone We can't outrun this, now it won't be long I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you x4

When I go walking at night, and I go walking with you When we go walking at night, fire walks with you It's down in the garden, it's down in the roots When we go walking at night, fire walks with you It's in the shadows, it's in the trees When I go walking at night, fire walks with me There's blood in the water, there's blood in the salt When we go walking at night fire walks with you The sky is open, open wide I thought I told you not to cry, to cry, to cry It's in the shadows, it's in the trees When I go walking at night, fire walks with me It's down in the garden, it's down in the roots When we go walking at night, fire walks with you I heard he takes his time, until there's nothing left Until it hits the ground and it rests, it rests, it rests And by the fire, fire walk with her I do not mind if it hurts, it hurts, it hurts

Wolf (Outro) 03:52
I never wanted what you are, I never wanted to work that hard The wolf is coming down the hall, I never wanted what you are The water's rising with the tide, something's hiding in your mind I never wanted what you are, the wolf is coming down the hall

about

"Ghost In The City" is about knowing darkness can be a strength and accepting the fact that we all carry some, whether we are conscious of it or not. That horrifying thought to some, is my grace, as it brings us closer together.

I traveled all over Western New York to work with a bunch of amazing musicians as this music evolved over the last year. Some to just jam with as I learned where the songs were going. Every note from those sessions remain a part of me, floating in the rooms and neighborhoods they were played in. Hence the title "Ghost In The City".

If you had anything to do with The Leones in the past year whether it was listening to a song, coming to a show, playing with us, supporting us in our Kickstarter campaign, inviting us to play at your venue or home, or stopping at the sidewalk to listen while we played a song in our garage, we just wanted to say thank you. We consider all of you, family.

It's also about our love of horror movies and it's heroines.

-Justin
