Lyrics

Verse

Fluorescent sign flickers on Main Street

Everyone knows my name but not me

Small talk at the diner, same old faces

I'm screaming inside these familiar places

They see what they want, a girl who's fine

But I'm drowning in a town that's never been mine

Pre-Chorus

I'm a stranger in my own skin

Nobody sees the war within

Chorus

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

Walking through but never found

They think they know me, but they don't have a clue

I'm trapped behind these eyes of blue

Misunderstood, misread, unseen

Haunting the spaces in between

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

And I can't get out

Verse

Mama says I'm too much in my head

Daddy thinks I'm fine, believes what I said

But late at night when the highway hums

I'm planning my escape, but I never run

Fear keeps me chained to what I know

I'm fading fast but it never shows

Pre-Chorus

I'm a stranger in my own skin

Nobody sees the war within

Chorus

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

Walking through but never found

They think they know me, but they don't have a clue

I'm trapped behind these eyes of blue

Misunderstood, misread, unseen

Haunting the spaces in between

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

And I can't get out

Bridge

Maybe I'm the problem, maybe I'm the one

Who built these walls and blocked the sun

But when you've been invisible for so damn long

You forget how to prove them wrong

Chorus - Stripped

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

Walking through but never found

They think they know me, but they don't have a clue

I'm trapped behind these eyes of blue

Misunderstood, misread, unseen

Haunting the spaces in between

I'm a ghost in a ghost town

Outro

And I can't get out

(Fluorescent sign flickers on Main Street)

I can't get out

(Everyone knows my name but not me)

I can't get out
