Billboards change selling cigarettes
Burned out lamps get replaced
But this old town can never forget
Every street here knows your face

I go back to every haunt
Every day it’s the same
Night draws in and I’m alone
Just the ghost of you remains

Now I used to hurt
Now I feel no pain
Now my captive heart
Is free of your chains
Now I used to care but doesn’t it show
Now you just someone that I used to know

I believe in this broken town
Though my hands have been burned
I reach out like a beaten child
Who’s love can’t be unlearned

Now I used to hurt
Now I feel no pain
Now my captive heart
Is free of your chains
Now I used to care but doesn’t it show
Now you just someone that I used to know

Close my eyes against the rain
Turn my back to the wind
