[Verse 1]
Take a walk in a ghost town
The sky is as black as crows
They don't make cars like they used to here
Times, they change
And factories close

Take a ride on a ghost train
Stare at the windows
See, time moves fast as a hurricane
But it's so strange
It feels so slow

[Chorus]
But sometimes it gets so cold down here
Well I swear it burns
The wind like fire coming off of the Great Lakes

Sometimes it gets so dark in here
Hey, I see it turn
The emptiness that moves within my soul
We're down in a ghost town

[Verse 2]
See the crash in the rust
See the ash in the dust
Feel it slipping through your hands
Falling on the shoes and the shoulders
Of the ragged man

See the pride and the shame
Like fire and the flame
Well, it burns through every man
And drops them like drunken soldiers
On the river banks

[Chorus]
Well, sometimes it gets so cold down here
Hey I swear it burns
The wind like fire coming off of the Great Lakes

Sometimes it gets so dark in here
Well I see it turn
The emptiness that moves within my soul
We're down in a ghost town

[Chorus]
Well, sometimes it gets so cold down here
Hey, I swear it burns
The wind like fire coming off of the Great Lakes

Sometimes it gets so dark in here
Oh, I see it turn
The emptiness that moves within my soul
We're down in a ghost town
