Ben Tinsley - Dromore Lyrics

He talked a lot about silence and pain
But I see him looking at her from the side of the train
She ran off with a pace to maintain
And his eyes sunk into the back of his brain
I said my stop was at the next town
He said he used to know everyone around
I've got a condition just listen now
Where do you go when your heart breaks down
Well, I've got no love for the nation, so said the man
I was just beginning to understand
Found a job, lost my mind, just as they planned
As I left, he put a note in my hand, it read
To the girl called Mallory who lived next door
I remember when we used to run around in Dromore
I had a life, kids, a wife, and not much more
I missed you then, and I miss you now
It was addressed to a cemetery out by the prairie
I found a headstone where the girl was buried
She died all by herself at the age of twenty
The doctors had said it was hereditary
She lost her will, her hope, her mind
But they were intertwined and he couldn't believe
She was sick in the mind, to herself unkind
Where do you go when your heart breaks down
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
Where did you go?
