Track 2 – Ghost Town
What is it going to take for people to see the damage we are doing to the planet and each other? The human race might need to write off people from my generation, and older, so that the people who grew up in the demented world we created, and have lived with our mistakes their whole lives, can chart a course away from greed and violence. I had to play some slide guitar because I ripped open my finger running it up the neck. It’s funny how adversity sometimes leads to opportunity because I like the ghostly sound of the slide with harmonics.
Everyone saw this coming Nobody wants to hear Now there's nobody living In this ghost town This ghost town This ghost town We saw the water rising Lived through the hurricane And then the fires came To this ghost town This ghost town This ghost town We're crawling from the wreckage Of a century filled with dreams Now we need the grass to grow again In this ghost town In this ghost town Onto that roaring fire We threw our promises Now no one looks you in the eye In this ghost town This ghost town This ghost town
