"Anyone's Ghost" lyrics
"Anyone's Ghost"
Say you stayed at home, alone with the flu
Find out from friends, that wasn't true
Go out at night with your headphones on, again
And walk through the Manhattan valleys of the dead
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost
But I don't want anybody else
I don't want anybody else
You said I came close as anyone's come
To live underwater for more than a month
You said it was night inside my heart, it was
You said it should tear a kid apart, it does
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost
But I don't want anybody else
I don't want anybody else
I don't want anybody else
I don't want anybody else
I had a hole in the middle where the lightning went through
I told my friends not to worry
I had a hole in the middle someone's sideshow to do
I told my friends not to worry
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost
Didn't wanna be your ghost
Didn't wanna be anyone's ghost

Let me lose myself along the way
I've got nothing left, it's kind of wonderful
Cause there's nothing they can take away… away
The open doors left me wanting...

And you know my wishes are sincere
What's to say, all the days I cannot bear

Fleet Foxes - "Montezuma" So now I am older than my mother and father
when they had their daughter
now what does that say about me
Oh how could I dream of such a selfless and true love
