"The Holy Ghost" lyrics

"The Holy Ghost"

Hey, we know that it is unfair
Sometimes you wanna take it all back and start anew somewhere
But you don't really want to be found
With your head in the ground
And your feet in the air

Oh, you said, "No one really knows
Sometimes I just want to be sad and see how it goes
I wish my spirit rose to see the whole thing from above like a grieving ghost
I think I just need to be lost
I just want to get lost for a minute."

Now it is time we grieved
The soul is dead, but the body will live
What is gone will be lost and it's hard to believe

Please leave it all to me
I am more than I thought I could be
I got lost for a while, but I'm willing to change

Here is to you, my child
For you know when your life gets wild
Don't be scared anywhere, any place, anytime
There'll be our hands above you

Here is a song to play
In the sun when I'm feeling okay
I'm still young, let me prove
I can learn, I can move
In the sun I will burn, I will rise
