I'M A GHOST IN THIS TOWN
Lyrics - Alexis Levitt & Suzanne Nelson
Recording Engineer - Robert Dahle

I scour the earth, the dirt, the sand
Some need not search, they curse the land
But I am neither sound nor whole
(I'm a ghost in this town. I'm a ghost in this town)
I leave this town to find my soul

Let the breeze carry me through the trees
Seeking life and sweet release
Away from the crowds where I feel so alone
(I'm a ghost in this town. I'm a ghost in this town)
Take me now, take me home

The desert paints with silence and space
I sink into the sun's embrace
No other remedy can compare
(I'm a ghost in this town. I'm a ghost in this town)
It clears my head and lays me bare

The men, they came and scarred this land
They stole her jewels with greedy hands
But now the time has come at last
For her to rise and take it back

A strange sort of comfort I find in this place
That long after the human race
Our walls will crumble, our bridges will fall
(I'm a ghost in this town. I'm a ghost in this town)
Yet life remains, despite it all
