I'm getting tired of watching other people go The lights on my street never come on And the lines are overgrown It's obvious now that I've been forgotten The hollow houses and vacant lots and The shattered windows and splintered doors How long have I been here all alone? Here I am again The one who gets Left behind, left behind, left behind Settled in, had a plan But I never factored in Everyone else saying goodbye This ghost town is making a ghost of me This ghost town is making a ghost, making a ghost of me I promised myself I'd learn to be the one who leaves With no more roots to tie me down It's just a different kind of lonely So I'm back to pulling arms And begging and begging For the love of God Don't leave me here again Here I am again The one who gets Left behind, left behind, left behind Settled in, had a plan But I never factored in Everyone else saying goodbye This ghost town is making a ghost of me This ghost town is making a ghost Making a ghost of me They shake me off and ask why I bother The answer is simple My father, his father I come from a long line of people who believe In the flowers that grow In the cracks in the street Here I am Here I am
