Yeah, this town was left a mess

Empty streets and words we can't take back

Said I wanted out, well not so fast

'Cause you don't care

How many times will we fall back

Till we can't justify our past

Darling, I was under attack

And you weren't there

Ghost town, we are on our own now

You're taking what is left of me

You stripped me to my bones now

You lie to me when you talk to me

Then get mad at me when I broke down

You're sidestepping the conversations

Got so complacent all around

Tell me what you want from me

Don't run from me I promise you I'd stay

Telling me you ain't wanting me

Still I try to save the day

Showing up on my porch steps

Girl, I think you went insane

Our perfect hurricane

Yeah, this town was left a mess

Empty streets and words we can't take back

Said I wanted out, well not so fast

'Cause you don't care

How many times will we fall back

Till we can't justify our past

Darling, I was under attack

And you weren't there

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

The lighthouse hums but it won't guide me home

I trace your name into the glass just to watch it go

If it's not the storm the quiet always swallows me

(It's funny how the cold don't hurt until it starts to leave)

She said"Oh

Better watch your mouth when you snap on back like that"

But no

You only follow the rules when they work for you

Baby you can hit me up but I won't slide through

I got poison on my tongue and it ain't no booze

I would love it, to love you

I'll tell you the truth

But you ain't on my side and I never lose

Yeah, this town was left a mess

Empty streets and words we can't take back

Said I wanted out, well not so fast

'Cause you don't care

How many times will we fall back

Till we can't justify our past

Darling, I was under attack

And you weren't there

(Oh, g-g-ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)

(Oh, ghost town, ghost town)

(Ghost town, ghost town, ghost town)
