"Ghost Town" lyrics

"Ghost Town"

I used to wanna be a hero
Live long enough for me to come save the day
You still wanna be a hero?
Now I don't even know if I'ma be okay

I think I'd rather give it up than to give it my all
Too afraid to fly 'cause you want me to fall
Said to follow me to the ends of the earth
Well, take a look around, do you see any worth?
I'm sick of all the demons that I got to my name
And every other day, there's a new flavor of pain
I've been told put in more work, but I don't know what it takes
And now the star I try to follow just gets farther away

And I've been running, running, running 'til I hit the ground
I've been searching for forever, don't know what I found
I used to love the taste, but now I hate the sound
Tell me, when's it gonna come around?

I used to wanna be a hero (Woah)
Live long enough for me to come save the day
You still wanna be a hero? (Woah)
Now I don't even know if I'ma be okay
So tell me, what's it gonna be?
I got nowhere to go and I just wanna leave, wanna leave
No, I'm not tryna be a hero
I'm just tryna be

Another year around the Sun, just waitin' to burn
Another year of lessons I don't think that I learned
Another day, another night and then it's rinse and repeat
Another day, another fight with something inside of me
And now I said too many times "There's no stoppin' us now"
But I can't shut out the voices sayin' "It's not allowed"
We were young and so ambitious, there was no lookin' down
I used to have so many friends, now I'm a ghost town

I've been running, running, running, don't know what I'd find
When all I really wanted was a place to hide
I used to love the rush, but now I hate the ride
I'm sick of the shit in my mind

I used to wanna be a hero (Woah)
Live long enough for me to come save the day
You still wanna be a hero? (Woah)
Now I don't even know if I'ma be okay
So tell me, what's it gonna be?
I got nowhere to go and I just wanna leave, wanna leave
No, I'm not tryna be a hero
I'm just tryna be

Don't try to save me now
'Cause you don't even know me now
And I'll bet you couldn't save yourself
I'll bet you told nobody else

I used to wanna be a hero (Woah)
Live long enough for me to come save the day
You still wanna be a hero? (Woah)
Now I don't even know if I'ma be okay
So tell me, what's it gonna be?
I got nowhere to go and I just wanna leave, wanna leave
No, I'm not tryna be a hero
I'm just tryna be
