Ghost Town
Unveiling Shadows: Discovering the Ghost Town Within
Lyrics
Put up all my defenses
Putting up emotional defenses
And I rehearse the lines
Rehearsing and preparing scripted responses
Practice up on pretending
Practicing the art of pretending
Tell the lie that I'm fine
Telling a lie about being fine
Ohh, am I alone
Questioning if feeling alone
Would you tell me what to believe in
Seeking guidance on what to believe
Like a drug for the mind
Comparing a mental distraction to a drug
Keep me full of excuses
Using excuses to avoid self-reflection
To never look inside
Avoiding looking within oneself
Ohh, have we lost it all?
Questioning if everything is lost
I want to run away before you see me in this place
Desire to escape before being seen vulnerable
I wonder if you did would we ever be the same
Contemplating the impact of being exposed
It's easy not to dig deeper
Choosing not to explore deeper emotions
Don't wanna risk my pride
Avoiding risks to protect personal pride
I'll keep you as my reason
Keeping someone as a reason for actions
Just assume that I'm right
Assuming that one is always right
Ohh, will I find myself
Questioning the discovery of oneself
I want to run away before you see me in this place
Desire to escape before being seen vulnerable (repeated)
I wonder if you did would we ever be the same
Contemplating the impact of being exposed (repeated)
Would we ever be the same
Questioning if things would ever be the same
Oh how will you find me
Questioning how someone will find the inner self
How can you find me
Expressing uncertainty about being found
My heart is a ghost town there's nothing to see
Describing the heart as a desolate place
You keep moving closer
Feeling someone approaching emotionally
Calling me over
Being called closer by someone
But my heart is a ghost town there's nothing to see
Reiterating the emptiness within the heart
Oh there's nothing to see
Emphasizing the lack of substance within
I want to run away before you see me in this place
Desire to escape before being seen vulnerable (repeated)
I wonder if you did would we ever be the same
Contemplating the impact of being exposed (repeated)
I wonder if you did would we ever be the same
Questioning if things would ever be the same (repeated)
