Gone as a Ghost Songtext
von Early James

Always knew you′d be better off leaving
Than sticking around here, feeding your demons
Got so good at making up reasons
Lie to yourself, what's one more season?

You′ll break your neck if you keep looking back
On that folding chair
The throne that you sat on
Tell you the truth, it's time that you get gone
Wasting your youth, til' your name′s on the gravestone


You′ll be gone as a ghost
All the songs that you used to sing
You'll be gone as a ghost
Bet they don′t even know your name

Out of the mouth of a modern-day town-crier
Your name's ringing out like holiday gun fire
Saw your face on a Wednesday night show flier
Turned your back on a second-hand empire

You′ll be gone as a ghost
All the songs that you used to sing
You'll be gone as a ghost
Bet they don′t even know your name

You'll be gone as a ghost
All the songs that you used to sing
You'll be gone as a ghost
Bet they don′t even know your name
