Too many late nights, too little to stand for. Forcing our way through every already closed door. No solid footing. I watched you backtrack, scratching out the lines you tried, the sentiments that never bring her back. I don't want to know what you regret and I don't need to see the end. The looks you gave, they all meant nothing. The thing that I want is never what you need. You show up hopeful so I'm bitter and I'm tired when you leave. No new beginnings. No happy endings. No better offers, but I think I'd rather keep pretending. Sort it out. I've got all night. You can stall all you like. Sort it out. I've got all night. We'll edit out the stops when we're done.

Knocked down and dragged out and I walked away and then I wrote you off again. Breakdowns and deep frowns turned to forced smiles. I'm begging can we stop again? Same position, same station. I sold my soul to avoid confrontation. You're always right and I'm always wrong. I make homes in places where I don't belong. New town's got old fears and I can't find one reason to stay here. If we lock eyes and then avert, I'll laugh until my chest hurts. Always distressed, never impressed. I changed my mind. You wished for a better actress. I'm down to one last chance. You never looked the same as at the first glance. I'll drag my feet 'til I've bored holes in the dirt. I'll devote all the energy that I can exert to leaving all those things I swore that I would never do. But I just want something to hold on to.

I was never exposed to radioactive goo, I was not launched from a dying planet in my youth. I probably have some mutated genes, but they don't give me super powers, just increased risk of heart disease. But Logan didn't need claws to be a father figure to Jubilee. Hermione didn't need magic to know that house elves deserve to be free. Dr. Hank McCoy didn't need strength or agility to fight for equal treatment in Washington D.C. The turtles didn't have to be turtles to save Danny from that street gang. They just need to listen when he needed some good friends. So if you ever doubt that what you do is important, you gotta know that you're helping out just by being a good person.

I moved here, I stayed here for more than four years. And I found myself surrounded, surrounded by the ghosts of the faces and spaces that made this place start to feel like home. Seth was new in town, he was starting a band, he needed a bassist. I was hanging around, so we wrote some songs, then we traded places. I still listen to the songs we used to play that summer when we hung out almost everyday. And that sweet sad baritone was one of the first things to sound like home. (chorus) I played drums in that basement. I played bass in that living room. I hung out on that front porch and became better friends with you. And I find myself in the passenger seat counting up the places that I used to sleep at least once a week. I love this place for what it's been, but do my best not to forget what it can be. Make new friends, make new music Face a problem and work through it. Host a show, host a potluck. Community doesn't happen by mistake! If cheap fender guitars can't break the ice better than cheap kegs of beer, then what the fuck are we doing here?* *The last couplet in Ghosts is taken from the poem "Prologue" by Alex Mussawir.
