"Don't Give Up Your Ghost" lyrics

"Don't Give Up Your Ghost"

There's no truth when I can't get through
You're in your head when I'm next to you
What's the price of an ugly view?
Make a mistake that you can't undo

I've been there before, laying on the floor
With a sharp idea in my hand
Couldn't picture more, givin' up the war
But some things just don't go as planned
Cause there's something more

(Don't give up your ghost)
Tell me what you think about
'Cause every single night I see you fight to keep it down
You're dizzy when it comes around
You stumble when you step and wake up below the ground
Can't see the green underneath the snow
(Don't give up your ghost)
If you leave you'll never know
(Don't give up your ghost)
Don't give up your ghost
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)

Where'd you learn how to hate yourself
I'll wager it was somebody else
You're on tilt from the pain you've felt
Ready to fold the hand you've been dealt

But there's a beauty I believe you can find
Under the grief, under the compromise
An ember that remains to ignite
Desperate to breathe, desperate to stay alive

I've been there before, laying on the floor
With a sharp idea in my hand
Couldn't picture more, givin' up the war
But some things just don't go as planned
There's something more

(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
Tell me what you think about
'Cause every single night I see you fight to keep it down
(Don't give up your ghost)
You're dizzy when it comes around
You stumble when you step and wake up below the ground
(Don't give up your ghost)
Can't see the green
(Don't give up your ghost)
Underneath the snow
(Don't give up your ghost)
If you leave
(Don't give up your ghost)
You'll never know
Don't give up your ghost
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
(Don't give up your ghost)
