Ghost Town from La Mano by Brianna Straut
Driving through abandoned towns in Texas by booming businesses come and gone, and old mining towns in Colorado crawling with memories of golden yesteryears inspired this tune. History has proven there's nothing new under the sun.

Lyrics
Oh this town, I can relate.
And I feel my heart is at stake.
As I walk right on through,
this haunting memory
that reminds me of you.
Give me one more chance
Before you go off and dance
oh ive been here before
Is this dejavu or is it just you
Cause we’re making the same ol mistakes
Just like before
And I’ll wait, for my judgement day
And I’ll wait, for my judgement day
Oh this glass I’m holding
I am looking through
It’s been used so many times
Just like me and you
So I smash the glass but keep all the pieces so i can break through
Oh this town, I can relate.
And I feel my heart is at stake.
As I walk right on through,
this haunting memory
that reminds me of you.
