lyrics

3. My Own Ghost Town

I took all I could take
I was still empty
I made promises to break
I was here but gone already

There’s no looking back
With your back against the wall

I was raised to borrow trouble
A king without a crown
Looking for the key to my own ghost town
I was born to be a liar
Burdened by the truth
Set it all on fire and make ashes of the proof
Ashes of the proof

I took all I could carry
Until the wheels came off
I kept my secrets in a locket
And I told you stories you believed

There’s no looking ahead
With yesterday’s eyes

I was raised to borrow trouble
A king without a crown
Looking for the key to my own ghost town
I was born to be a liar
Burdened by the truth
Set it all on fire and make ashes of the proof
Ashes of the proof

I fought like hell and I kicked down the ladder
I buried my tracks so I couldn’t find my way back
I tore my own heart out and sold it for a night alone

I was raised to borrow trouble
A king without a crown
Looking for the key to my own ghost town
I was born to be a liar
Burdened by the truth
Set it all on fire and make ashes of the proof
Ashes of the proof
