Ghost Town - Sean McConnell

Crazy being back here

Driving around this town

I can’t tell if I wanna build a shrine

Or just burn it to the ground

Just burn it to the ground

Turn left of Trickle

Drove by the old place

Swore if I could peek inside I’d find us

Breaking bread and saying grace

I had to drive away

Cause everyone around here now’s a stranger

They don’t know they walk on sacred ground

Yeah, they can’t see what I can see

These apparition memories still talking

Still walking around, living in a ghost town

Living in a ghost town

Well, I broke Jenny’s heart in that Walmart parking lot

There’s where and Joe would go get stoned

Behind that Texaco truck stop

Till his mama called the cops

There’s a bell ringing

From the church that saved my soul

And I saw Tommy’s name on the marque

Down in Martin’s pool hall

He’s still dreaming rock and roll

And everyone around here now’s a stranger

They don’t know they walk on sacred ground

Yeah, they can’t see what I can see

These apparition memories

They walk right through their bodies like a cloud

They’re living in a ghost town, living in a ghost town

There’s the

An amplifier and an electric guitar

My father taught me «Stairway»

And I climbed it all the way up to the stars

Up to the stars

And everyone around here now’s a stranger

They don’t know they walk on sacred ground

Yeah, they can’t see what I can see

These apparition memories still talking

Still walking around, they’re living in a ghost town

Living in a ghost town, they’re living in a ghost town

Who’s that living in my ghost town, yeah
