Ghost Town
Walking home today swear the ground will cave
The bridge is cracking under this town's standards as if it were clay
All the grass is turning concrete
It's damaging my conscience sets fire to my fate
The people on the street they don't know my name
Or pretend not to keep their heads down and walk away
The restaurant where my friend and I dreamed we'd work at sixteen
Is ash now tossed 'round on the highway
A message in a sign indicating I should turn away
So am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
Dangerous diamond eternity
Amplifying stereotypes till I leave mocking me
Trying to see through these fake entities
I cannot sleep with the ringing of church bells that hide behind religion
Intoxicating silence in suburban prison
Dreaming of their crimes idealize division
So am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
Thanks to all you brain cell deprived catcalling teens
For unwittingly faming and patronizing me
Grateful to all you insane human hurricanes
For giving me a reputation raising suspicions up to my knees
Shoutout to all you egoistic with firearms
For thinking you killed me but only left healing scars
Your drive only lasted so far
Am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
The bridge is cracking under this town's standards as if it were clay
All the grass is turning concrete
It's damaging my conscience sets fire to my fate
The people on the street they don't know my name
Or pretend not to keep their heads down and walk away
The restaurant where my friend and I dreamed we'd work at sixteen
Is ash now tossed 'round on the highway
A message in a sign indicating I should turn away
So am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
Dangerous diamond eternity
Amplifying stereotypes till I leave mocking me
Trying to see through these fake entities
I cannot sleep with the ringing of church bells that hide behind religion
Intoxicating silence in suburban prison
Dreaming of their crimes idealize division
So am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
Thanks to all you brain cell deprived catcalling teens
For unwittingly faming and patronizing me
Grateful to all you insane human hurricanes
For giving me a reputation raising suspicions up to my knees
Shoutout to all you egoistic with firearms
For thinking you killed me but only left healing scars
Your drive only lasted so far
Am I gonna go down with this ghost town
Or am I gonna keep the headphones too loud
Blocking out my vision blocking out my sound
Hang on you psychopathic buzzed crowd
A train is coming but you won't hear a sound
Probably should clear the vapors out
