I am walking through a ghost town That is full of live people But the smell of graveyard flowers softly whispers the names of the dead Empathy I no longer want to know the emotions behind your actions I have no desire to let you distort my views so that I feel sorry for the things you did Love I can never be sure that love lived in the first place And to think that it did brings no comfort to the situation But I can't stop All I wonder is if it has died forever Sanity My mind has been placed on house arrest I spent all this time trying to run from my thoughts only to realize they were tied to my ankle So I can find no escape I am invisible And as I watch everyone move around me I know that you have placed me here With the rest of the dead Because you could no longer bear to see the casualties you have caused So I sit here in silence Watching you do the same to another Because even if I did call out She wouldn't be able to hear me So I listen to your twisted lies And the cries of the fallen With tears rolling down my cheeks Rest In Peace

Ghost Town
I am walking through a ghost town That is full of live people But the smell of graveyard flowers softly whispers the names of the dead Empathy I no longer want to know the emotions behind your actions I have no desire to let you distort my views so that I feel sorry for the things you did Love I can never be sure that love lived in the first place And to think that it did brings no comfort to the situation But I can't stop All I wonder is if it has died forever Sanity My mind has been placed on house arrest I spent all this time trying to run from my thoughts only to realize they were tied to my ankle So I can find no escape I am invisible And as I watch everyone move around me I know that you have placed me here With the rest of the dead Because you could no longer bear to see the casualties you have caused So I sit here in silence Watching you do the same to another Because even if I did call out She wouldn't be able to hear me So I listen to your twisted lies And the cries of the fallen With tears rolling down my cheeks Rest In Peace
