Ghostown - BASECAMP

Laid flat

The cards on the table

But we were not able

To fold or concede

I fought back

And what did it get me

This is no victory

This is defeat

Burned

I burned away

The only things I ever needed

To stay

Stuck with the choice

The choices I’ve made

I should be proud right now

But I’m left to bare the weight

Alone

All the lines we crossed

Had to be a better way

Maybe I missed it

I should’ve listened

To love

Everything we lost

Laying in the bed we made

Wrapped in shame

I know

I turned my heart to a ghost town

Stood and watched as it burned down

I turned my heart to a ghost town

Not

Much left to take

Its only now I realize it’s too late

Cut a new path

And sharpen my blade

I should be home by now

But there’s no longer such a place

Wish that we could’ve been stronger

Yeah I know it hurt

But we could’ve held for a little bit longer

I know it’s my fault

The flesh and the bone

The blood on the ground

The deafening sound

That pushes me on

Alone

All the lines we crossed

Had to be a better way

Maybe I missed it

I should’ve listened

To love

Everything we lost

Laying in the bed we made

Wrapped in shame

I know

I turned my heart to a ghost town

Stood and watched as it burned down

I turned my heart to a ghost town
