Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Died last night in my dreams Walking the streets Of some old ghost town I tried to believe In God and James Dean But Hollywood sold out Saw all of the saints Lock up the gates I could not enter Walked into the flames Called out your name But there was no answer And now I know my heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town Died last night in my dreams All the machines Had been disconnected Time was thrown at the wind And all of my friends Had been disaffected Now, I'm searching for trust In a city of rust A city of vampires Tonight, Elvis is dead And everyone's spread And love is a satire And now I know my heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town There's no one left in the world I'm gunslingin' Don't give a f*** if I go Down, down, down I got a voice in my head that keeps singing Oh, my heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town Oh, my heart is a ghost town (Said, my heart) My heart is a ghost town My heart is a ghost town
