Ghosttown

It doesn't matter where I am
If I'm a ghost in every town
'Cause until they know my name
I'm not one of their own

Even with the lights outside
I still see ghosts in every town
They're all coming from inside
They're not really around

Towns have all had ghosts since the day I died
Doors have remained closed to those of my kind
Homes are empty of souls to fill my mind
Ghosts everywhere 'cause I was left to die

Every crowd I see is filled with faces I cannot look at
None of them belongs to those who left all but my heart
Sometimes I hear voices of the past in the streets I walk in
Just an echo of lives that were carried by the wind

Towns have all had ghosts since the day I died
Doors have remained closed to those of my kind
Homes are empty of souls to fill my mind
Ghosts everywhere 'cause I was left to die

Like a ghosttown
Like a ghosttown
Like a ghosttown
Like a ghosttown

Just like a ghosttown that everybody fled
Just like a ghosttown that's only for the dead

So many people and yet nobody's there
Only ghosts do follow me everywhere

Houses I can only see from outside
No right to come and see the life inside

Churches and my memories have turned to ruins
All form of life has to come from within

It doesn't matter where I am
I still see ghosts in every town
'Cause nobody calls my name
As I'm waiting around

Even those I miss the most
Have gone back deep into the ground
And I'll keep being the ghost
I was in my hometown
