"Ghost" lyrics
Buried that body a long time ago
Dug myself a deep dark hole
Put you inside
Yeah, just to free my soul
It was ritual
Had a funeral
Everybody came
They knew I was there to let go
And I did
In my own sweet time
For my own peace of mind
And I did
Yeah, I made that bed
Yeah, I even changed the linen
But you're still fucking in it
And it shows
That you still live with the ghost of us
Sometimes your mask is slipping
And it shows
That you're still thinking the most of us
When you're the one who burned it down
When you kill the lights
And it hits home
When you're terrified
Of being all alone
That's why you live with the ghost, the ghost, the ghost
The ghost of us
Well, it's so you of you to laugh
When I say you're the monster in my path
You always were from way back then
You shattered all I have
Made me walk on broken glass
I got the pieces out
But it took me ages
And I don't know
Why you think you're in control
So, we split our friends in half
You take those and I'll take these
No returns and no receipts
Don't matter to me, it's not that deep
And it shows
That you still live with the ghost of us
Sometimes your mask is slipping
And it shows
That you're still thinking the most of us
When you're the one who burned it down
When you kill the lights
And it hits home
When you're terrified
Of being all alone
That's why you live with the ghost, the ghost, the ghost
The ghost of us
Thank you for the memories
File it under "dead to me"
Take it to the cemetery
Uh-huh
I can tell you this for free
One of us needs therapy
And I know it isn't me
When you kill the lights
And it hits home
And you're terrified
Of being all alone
Feel the ghost (whoa)
The ghost of us
And it shows
That you still live with the ghost of us
Sometimes your mask is slipping
And it shows
That you're still thinking the most of us
When you're the one who burned it down
When you kill the lights (kill the lights)
And it hits home (it hits home)
When you're terrified
Of being all alone (yeah)
That's why you live with the ghost, the ghost, the ghost (feel the ghost, whoa)
The ghost of us
Dug myself a deep dark hole
Put you inside
Yeah, just to free my soul
It was ritual
Had a funeral
Everybody came
They knew I was there to let go
And I did
In my own sweet time
For my own peace of mind
And I did
Yeah, I made that bed
Yeah, I even changed the linen
But you're still fucking in it
And it shows
That you still live with the ghost of us
Sometimes your mask is slipping
And it shows
That you're still thinking the most of us
When you're the one who burned it down
When you kill the lights
And it hits home
When you're terrified
Of being all alone
That's why you live with the ghost, the ghost, the ghost
The ghost of us
Well, it's so you of you to laugh
When I say you're the monster in my path
You always were from way back then
You shattered all I have
Made me walk on broken glass

The ghost of us
