Ghost Town
My hometown is empty
Through my bones it haunts me
Memories are fading
Of all the streets that I have seen
Railroad tracks on the parkway
Late night drives in the pouring rain
My first love (but I won't share their name)
Mistakes I've made along the way
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
Moving on
Without me
Passing by the village square
Wondering why old friends aren't there
Everyone has moved on
You've never been the special one
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
Moving on
Without me
The last night of innocence
When that school day ended
Preceded overdose & penance
In a town that's abandoned
There's nothing there for anyone
Just neon lights brighter than the sun
Drunk drivers and honeymoons
Suicides and birthday balloons
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
Through my bones it haunts me
Memories are fading
Of all the streets that I have seen
Railroad tracks on the parkway
Late night drives in the pouring rain
My first love (but I won't share their name)
Mistakes I've made along the way
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
Moving on
Without me
Passing by the village square
Wondering why old friends aren't there
Everyone has moved on
You've never been the special one
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
Moving on
Without me
The last night of innocence
When that school day ended
Preceded overdose & penance
In a town that's abandoned
There's nothing there for anyone
Just neon lights brighter than the sun
Drunk drivers and honeymoons
Suicides and birthday balloons
But every time I visit now
I can't recognize this town
The ghost of my childhood
Is somewhere in this neighbourhood
