Gone as a Ghost

Always knew you'd be better off leaving

Than sticking around here, feeding your demons

Got so good at making up reasons

Lie to yourself, what's one more season?

You'll break your neck if you keep looking back home

That folding chair, the throne that you sat on

Tell you the truth, it's time that you get gone

Wasting your youth till your name's on the gravestone

You'll be gone as a ghost

All the songs that you used to sing

You'll be gone as a ghost

That they don't even know your name

Out of the mouth of a modern day town crier

Your name's ringing out like holiday gunfire

Saw your face on a Wednesday night show flier

Turned your back on a second hand empire

You'll be gone as a ghost

All the songs that you used to sing

You'll be gone as a ghost

That they don't even know your name

You'll be gone as a ghost

All the songs that you used to sing

You'll be gone as a ghost

That they don't even know your name
