Ghost Town
Kurt Vile/Musicfire.in Lyrics

In the morning I'm not done sleeping
I still feel tired and sluggish even after a night's sleep.

In the evening I guess I'm alive
I finally feel awake and alert as the day comes to an end.

It's alright to still peel myself up sleepwalking
It's okay to feel like I'm just going through the motions of life.

In a ghost town
My surroundings feel empty and lifeless, like a ghost town.

Think I'll never leave my couch again
I feel so worn out that I don't want to do anything or go anywhere.

'Cause when I'm out I'm only out of my mind
When I'm out and about, I feel like I'm not really present or engaged in the world around me.

Christ was born I was there
I feel a sense of connection to significant events in history such as Jesus' birth.

You know me I'm around
I feel like I'm always present, even if I'm not actively participating in life.

I got friends
I have people in my life who I care about and who care about me.

Hey wait where was I?
I often feel like I'm just floating through life without direction or purpose.

Well I am trying
Despite feeling lost and disconnected, I am still making an effort to engage with the world.

When I'm driving I found I'm dreaming
I often find myself lost in my own thoughts while driving.

Dreamin tunes and drifting
My thoughts often revolve around music and imagination.

It's just that sometimes I want to pullover
Sometimes I feel overwhelmed and need to take a break from the world.

Open up and stay in
When I take a break, I want to focus on myself and my own thoughts.

Raindrops might fall on my head sometimes,
There are times when life can be challenging or uncomfortable.

But I don't pay 'em any mind.
I try not to let those challenges get me down or distract me from my goals.

Christ was here you just missed him
Sometimes life-changing events happen without us even noticing or realizing their significance.

Now I'm out going down second
I'm moving on and living my life, no matter how disconnected or aimless I may feel.

To all the stores to see my friends
I still try to put in effort to connect with people and maintain social relationships.

To find cakes, to find old ships
I'm still searching for meaning and fulfillment in life, even if I'm not sure where to find it.

When I'm drinking I get to joking
I often use humor as a way to cope with the challenges in my life.

Then I'm laughing falling down
Sometimes that humor can be taken too far and lead to negative consequences.

Well that's just fine and I just pick myself up and walk down
Even when things don't go my way, I try to keep moving forward and not give up.

Ghost town
My surroundings still feel empty and lifeless, like a ghost town.

Then again I guess it ain't always that way.
Despite feeling disconnected and aimless at times, there are still moments of hope and possibility in life.
