lyrics

I was born without a choice, one more child on one more day
20 years of waiting and the dreaming never pays
There only seemed like one way out, but you don’t know how you came in
When I was born that day it already felt like the end

In a ghost town, in a ghost town
You wake up half alive and afraid to turn around
In a ghost town, in a ghost town
They keep you here with lies and they leave you in the ground

Living with no story, and you're born without a name
No one looks you in the eyes and no one knows your face
The buildings crumble into dust and the roads are paved with blood
The wings of fallen angels are broken, caked in mud

In a ghost town, in a ghost town
You wake up half alive and afraid to turn around
In a ghost town, in a ghost town
They keep you here with lies and they leave you in the ground

No where to run to 'cause here is where we hide
Nothing to hold on, and no other side

A town full of lost souls, where dreams go to die
A town full of losers, and I don’t know who am I
A town full of longing, the glory days have gone by
A town full of emptiness, a town lost in time

In a ghost town, in a ghost town
You wake up half alive and afraid to turn around
In a ghost town, in a ghost town
They keep you here with lies and they leave you in the ground

In a ghost town, in a ghost town
They turn you into nothing, and darling that’s a fact
In a ghost town, in a ghost town
When you see a little light, go and don’t turn back
