Ghost Town Lyrics

when the night falls
I lay my head on shallow ground
covered by the sand of desert dunes,
I will be found
write your name with fingers in the sand
and it's blown away by sandstorms
and

I'm gonna leave this ghost town
I'm leaving, leaving, leaving this ghost town
I'm gonna leave it on its own
lost souls on dead ground

and all the memories
that come at night
and steel my sleep
the neverending game
of love and pain
I'm in too deep
rattlesnakes draw circles in the dust
and while I watch them I realize I must
leave this ghost town

I'm leaving, leaving, leaving this ghost town
I'm leaving, yeah, leaving this ghost town
I'm leaving, leaving, leaving this ghost town
I'm gonna leave it on its own
lost souls on dead ground

lost souls on dead ground

I'm leaving, leaving, leaving this ghost town
I'm leaving, yeah, leaving this ghost town
I'm leaving, leaving, leaving this ghost town
I'm gonna leave it on its own
lost souls on dead ground
lost souls on dead ground
lost souls on dead ground

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
