Ghost Town
Secret Eyes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I believe in
To make sober
To find composure
I believe in
To make me someone
That runs but doesn't fall

I want to know
What I don't want to know
Cause you were the one to make it stop
You were the one to make it

The bottom so far
I don't want no part
Of dying
Then I came back
I wanted to be one with you
Cause you see the things that I do
How many times I've tried

I want to know
What I don't want to know
Cause you were the one to make it stop




You were the one to make it
Living in a Ghost... Town
