Ghost Town Lyrics

Every time I return

I hope to see familiar faces

But only ghosts remain

Replaced by people I no longer know

Empty houses

Missing souls

I no longer feel at home

The past is fading

I cannot hope to hold it

Move on or be left behind

Things have changed

For better or for worse

But I know what I must do

Say goodbye

To those dead and gone

I will not yet join the phantoms

This surreal feeling

Never seems to leave my mind

Everything is so bizarre

Twenty years down the road

So this is where I stand

Do I belong to this chasm?

No, I refuse to succumb

To the gate of ghosts

Empty houses

Missing souls

I no longer feel at home

The past is fading

I cannot hope to hold it

Move on or be left behind

Things have changed

For better or for worse

But I know what I must do

Say goodbye

To those dead and gone

I will not yet join the phantoms

This is a final parting

To the ghost town I call home
