lyrics

Our Katie got so tired of waiting
She was sick of chasing down teenage ghosts
The books and the letters didn’t make it any better
Listening to records made it worse
What happened to the radio?
What happened to the songs she knows?
The kids at the festivals
They’re acting supernatural.
 
We don’t believe in miracles
We don’t believe in God
We don’t believe in anything,
This isn’t what we want
Feel the shadows growing long
Teenage ghosts, we’re teenage ghosts.
 
How Katie just dreams of escaping, she’s
Sick of staying in with teenage ghosts
The thought of karaoke only made her feel lonely
The ghouls at work thought she ought to go
Songs from twenty years ago
Are mapped across her chromosomes
This generation
Needs a visitation
 
We don’t believe in miracles
We don’t believe in God
We don’t believe in anything,
This isn’t what we want
Feel the shadows growing long
Teenage ghosts, we’re teenage ghosts.
 
We were following the bouncing ball
An apparition came right through the wall
She stepped out of the shadows
Into the bright white light

In the empty orchestra
With everybody watching her
She turned to the audience
And blew us away

We don’t believe in miracles
We don’t believe in God
We don’t believe in anything,
This isn’t what we want
Hide inside your favourite songs
Teenage ghosts, we’re teenage ghosts

She didn't have an instrument
She didn't have an amp
She started singing something that I didn't understand
Floating six feet over ground
Teenage ghost, she’s a teenage ghost

West Midlands

West Midlands are a super natural indie rock band.

West Midlands songs tell the story of a rapidly decaying rock star, dropped by his label, forgotten by his fans and forced to return to his childhood home in the Black Country to confront his demons – some of which, it turns out, are actual demons. It’s sort of a documentary. ... more
