Ghost Town
Aiobahn David Shane & Balville Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lights turn the dark
We donβ€²t know the real reflection
Suspended in a slow motion
Till we question
Worlds are apart
Living in a new dimension
We don't know the skies are fading
No good reason
The Earthβ€²s shaking down at the speed of sound
Hearts break and found in the underground
Give me all your love
'Cause without you I'm a ghost town
Iβ€²m a ghost town
Iβ€²m a ghost town
I'm a ghost town
Iβ€²m a ghost town
I'm a ghost town

Skies fade away
Looking for you in deep space
Iβ€²m praying for a saving grace
Need your loving
The Earth's shaking down at the speed of sound
Hearts break and found in the underground
Give me all your love
β€²Cause without you I'm a ghost town

I'm a ghost town
Iβ€²m a ghost town

The Earthβ€²s shaking down at the speed of sound
Hearts break and found in the underground




Give me all your love
'Cause without you Iβ€²m a ghost town

Overall Meaning

The song Ghost Town by Aiobahn David Shane and Balville is a powerful ballad that explores the feeling of being lost and abandoned without the love of someone special. The opening lines, "Lights turn the dark, We donβ€²t know the real reflection", allude to a feeling of confusion and uncertainty, as the singer tries to navigate a world that is no longer familiar. The concept of being suspended in slow motion emphasizes the feeling of being stuck in a rut, unable to move forward until we start questioning why we're in this state.


In the following lines, it becomes clear that there is a sense of detachment from the rest of the world. "Worlds are apart, Living in a new dimension, We don't know the skies are fading, No good reason" suggest that the singer is living in a different reality from everyone else. They are not aware of the world around them changing, and do not have a good reason for why they are in this state. The chorus repeats the idea that without the love of the person who has abandoned them, the singer is a "ghost town", a deserted and empty place. They are begging for that love and connection to fill them back up and bring them back from the brink.


The second verse continues this theme of searching for love in the midst of chaos. "Skies fade away, Looking for you in deep space, Iβ€²m praying for a saving grace, Need your loving" uses the metaphor of the skies fading to emphasize the sense of doom and desperation that the singer is feeling. Once again, they are searching for their lost love, hoping that they will find salvation in the midst of destruction. The repetition of the chorus drives home the message that without love, we can be left feeling abandoned and alone in the world.
