James Dean Cotton - The Kings of Salem Road Lyrics




I remember you when we were kids
You decided everything we did
You had just your mother and I wished I was your brother
And no one ever questioned what we did

Lived across the street from me and Dad
Bleached out mobile homes and photographs
You had all the toys and I never made a noise
But no one ever asked where we were at

We were the boy kings of Salem Road
Holding court upon a porch of weathered two by fours
We were the boy kings of Salem Road
The kingdom fades to black, in a
Prologue of boy who's looking back

Sixties SciFi on the TV screen
The white noise filled the room in flickering
Nights we stayed up talking, while our innocence went walking
And no one ever said what it would mean

We were the boy kings of Salem Road
Holding court upon a porch of weathered two by fours
We were the boy kings of Salem Road
The kingdom fades to black, in a
Prologue of boy who's looking back

And we both graduated into fields that were ill-fated
And your early discharge seemed to set a stage
I went to the West Coast
And you became my best ghost
To slip away and disappear in flames

We were the boy kings of Salem Road
We were the boy kings of Salem Road
We were the boy kings of Salem Road
And a kingdom fades to black
In a prologue of boy who's looking back...
