"Running With Ghosts" lyrics

Always running with ghosts
Seeing shadows on the wall
I was trying to fight it
But the light is defining
The stranger's perception
Better know what to do
I'm afraid to be lonely
I'm afraid of this truth

Everything's nothing if I don't have you
Everything's nothing if I don't have you

So when I'm in that place, again
And before I can say it's the end
Could you hold me and stop me from running
And if I don't know how, I'll try
'Cause something about it feels right
To lay my heart, lay my heart on the line

Always playing with fire
Wondering why I get burned
It's the loneliest lesson
When you find out the love
Hurts you more than the nightmares
That you didn't think true
So you go back to the corner
And you hide from love too

Everything's nothing if I don't have you
Everything's nothing if I don't have you

So when I'm in that place, again
And before I can say it's the end
Could you hold me and stop me from running
And if I don't know how, I'll try
'Cause something about it feels right
To lay my heart, lay my heart on the line

And if I don't know how, I'll try
'Cause something about it feels right
To lay my heart on the line
