Lyrics

Always knew you'd be better off leaving Than sticking around here, feeding your demons Got so good at making up reasons Lie to yourself, what's one more season? You'll break your neck if you keep looking back On that folding chair The throne that you sat on Tell you the truth, it's time that you get gone Wasting your youth, til' your name's on the gravestone You'll be gone as a ghost All the songs that you used to sing You'll be gone as a ghost Bet they don't even know your name Out of the mouth of a modern-day town-crier Your name's ringing out like holiday gun fire Saw your face on a Wednesday night show flier Turned your back on a second-hand empire You'll be gone as a ghost All the songs that you used to sing You'll be gone as a ghost Bet they don't even know your name You'll be gone as a ghost All the songs that you used to sing You'll be gone as a ghost Bet they don't even know your name
