"Ghost" lyrics

"Ghost"

He's always rapping at my door
And I let him in
Still, he asks for more
Uninvited
And I can get him out when I need
He always comes back
Always come back

I know him like a friend, but I'm trying to get rid of him
He's the weight in my shadow, it's always pulling me in
He's all of the ghosts from the big blue eyes
Through the gap in your teeth, you make me feel alright

And if you don't mind me askin' for all your time
Will I let you have my

[?]
He knew which way was west
Long drive, did not catch the sunset
So we go down to the shadows of an empty cul de sac
Blood sky and the night was coming back

And he's gone, but the ghost is still around
Hiding in those memories you've been trying to shoot down
He's gone, but the ghost is still out
If it comes here again, I'll kick it's fucking head in

So if you wanted to go somewhere else
Well, you know I'll follow, follow you

And I wanna be there when it's time to leave
And become the sun and the moon and the trees
And the wind when it kisses your back and sings
You a song and it goes on and on and on

If you wanted to leave all the good in you
Well, I'll take the rest too
