Ghost Town

 

Come 5:15 this place is a ghost town

Searched for a single soul but nothing to be found

Come 9 AM we’re in the same place

Wishing we’re somewhere else but not enough to change

We’re living in a ghost town, dying just to break out

Can feel it in your heart now, can feel it in your bones like

Know this isn’t living when you live like that

Never looking forward, never looking back

You know there’s nothing here to tie us down

Living in a ghost town

I wanna live like I’m alive now

Not gonna wait to situate and settle down

I need my blood pumping

I need my mind racing

I need something moving

I need to wake up knowing that I’ll wake to something more than

Dreaming my days away

I just don’t want to

Sleep while I am awake

Make a Move

 

Feel this tension in the air

So thick that we can barely breathe

We are held hostage by our stare

Both trying to speculate on what the other thinks

It’s hard to take a ship offshore

When you’re not sure what you’re sailing towards

I’ll be the first to

Make a move towards you

It’s frightening to go first in anything

To take the leap and not know what’s underneath

But I’ll take the step and hope that you’ll go with me

I’ve kept a guard over my heart

To slow things down and stop them before they start

But you’ve been a train that keeps on coming

And I’ve got no escape plan

I’m not running

It’s hard to take a ship offshore

When you’re not sure what you’re sailing towards

And it’s hard to close your eyes and jump

When you’re not sure the water’s deep enough

Heaven Here

 

We weren't made to be over

Just new in the same old way

We were made for forever

But we're caught up in a yesterday

I know that you don't wanna talk about it

But I can't tell you what to do

I know that you don't wanna think about it

But that doesn't mean that it's not true

We could wait

For the end to turn until we all fall down

Rot away

Waiting for a day that we are in right now

We could bring heaven here

Forever won’t come later

It now that we can feel and see

We can only be in this moment

The future is a fantasy

Forever’s where the future meets the past meets the present

Where the future meets the past meets forever
