BASECAMP – Ghostown lyrics
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
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
