Ghost Town Memories

You sold out. You broke down.

Did you ever know what you wanted?

You told me. You loathe me.

Did you ever think I’d believe it?

Time heals and time can build

Castles from salt and sand,

Why don’t you take my hand?

You know it’s what you want.

You live in the walls because nobody told you I’m safe.

You can see for yourself but you would rather just push me away.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?

 

I tried it. I liked it.

It was always what I wanted.

I made sure. It was pure.

I guess I never thought they would hear me.

Love kills and love can break me,

I surrender willingly,

I know it’s all you want.

I understand why you left the ghost town of a home that you come from.

I also understand perfectly that you’d be perfect with me.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?

 

I know they scarred you.

But I can fix you.

Let me get the broken parts.

You know you trust me.

You want to need me.

You’re the only one who’s stopping you from letting go of everything,

I won’t hurt you. I won’t hurt you.

I won’t hurt you. I won’t hurt you.

We need to be strong.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?
