Songwriters: Nelson, Willie;
She always follows me from town to town
At least her memories follow me around
Whenever I clear my mind so she can see
I feel her love come rushing into me
And I know that I will never be alone
It looks as though her memory's bound to haunt
And I know my love will always stay in bounds
With her memory always following me around
Following me around, following me around
Following me around, following me around
And I know my love will always stay in bounds
With her memory always following me around
Following me around, following me around
Following me around, following me around
And I know my love will always stay in bounds
With her memory always following me around
With her memory always following me around
[Tupac - speaking]
The only way, for me to come back, is by Makaveli
That's it! All these motherfuckers stole from me
I'm takin back what's mine
[slowed down voice]
[laughing] You motherfuckers can't stop me
Even if I die, I'm gon' be a fuckin problem
Do you believe in ghosts, motherfucker?
Real live black... ghosts
Feel me?
[Verse One: 2Pac]
Some say I'm crazy, these punk-ass cops can't fade me
Mama tried to raise me, but had too many babies
Papa was a motherfuckin, joke
Used to find dope in his coat
And nearly choked when he'd tell me not to smoke
Daaamn, don't get me started
My mama smoked so God damn much
when she was pregnant I'm surprised I ain't retarded
At night I can't sleep, can't peep
As they pass through the glass of my neighbors five deep
Starin at the wall, heard a scream
Wake up in the mornin
See the blood in the hall from the murder scene
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
On the corner, where the niggaz slang they crack
And the undercovers jack those that don't watch they back
(Five-OH!) I daydream about the dope world
Take a puff from the blunt and watch the smoke swirl
My mausberg goes BOOM, what's another plug
Snatchin drugs, pumpin slugs in these other thugs
(GIVE IT UP NIGGA) Don't run out of breath
Every step could be death 'til you blast
And be the last nigga left, then I'll be ghost
[Chorus: 2Pac]
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
[Verse Two: 2Pac]
A seven-deuce full of niggaz goes by
Thought I was trippin the second time they rolled, by
Recognized the plates, the faces looked familiar
Everybody swear they know the nigga that's gonna, kill ya
Don't murder me murder me, killa a nigga in his sleep
Let me die as I rest in peace, deep
Back to these niggaz in the seven-deuce
A mac-10 out the window bout to let it loose, what could I do?
Run for cover and return fire
DIE MOTHERFUCKIN DIE, hope yo' ass fry, don't ask why
But I let off everything I have
An empty clip, hit the ground as a nigga dash
On my ass was the motherfuckin cops now
Barely breathin tryin to keep from gettin shot down
BOO-YAOW is the sound, bullet whizzed by
Still runnin like a nigga got nine lives
Don't know why but I'm runnin to my fuckin block
Took a shot, tired of runnin from the niggaz and the cops
Time to be a ghost
(HEY MAN, COME THE FUCK ON!)
And then we'll be ghost
[Chorus]
[Tupac - speaking]
FUCK THE POLICE NIGGA! [laughing]
[Tupac - speaking]
The only way, for me to come back, is by Makaveli
That's it! All these motherfuckers stole from me
I'm takin back what's mine
[slowed down voice]
[laughing] You motherfuckers can't stop me
Even if I die, I'm gon' be a fuckin problem
Do you believe in ghosts, motherfucker?
Real live black... ghosts

[Tupac - speaking]
It used to be so many colors to me
now when I look at you
all I see is clear
and nothing else in this world
mattered to me
just as long as I had you near
I stepped right off the highest mountain
thinking I could walk the sky
tell me and I would believe
but this would be the last time you made me cry
cause I can see nothing but smokescreen, yeah
a ghost, your nothing but a ghost to me
a ghost, and you don't exist no more
nothing but a ghost to me
a ghost and you don't exist no more
see you used to be my dream girl
all you do is hold me go go go
ay ay ay ay
I used to think heaven, when I looked at you
because you were a angel to me
but now all this hell that you took me through
baby you lost your wings
I used to feel like I was on top of the world
With you I would go anywhere
but then I woke up at the bottom of this earth
and saw you both flying there
A ghost, your nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you Don't exist no more
nothing but a ghost to me, A ghost
and you don't exist no more
see you used to be my dream now, all you do is hold me
go go go
ay ay ay, goo
ay ay ay ay Just go (X2)
ay ay ay, goo
you used to love me, now slowly I see you drifting
ever since you broke my heart in two
I don't want to have nothing to do with you
and even though I still love you more
I've gotta walk away from your heart
I've lost my strength cause I can't do this
scratch your name off my list
A ghost, your nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you don't exist no more
nothing but a ghost to me, a ghost
and you don't exist no more (don't exist no more)
see you used to be my dream now, all you do is hold me
go go go (X2)
ay ay ay, goo
[Instrumental]
There's a letter on the desktop that i dug out of a drawer the last truce we ever came to from our adolescent war and i start to feel a fever from the warm air through the screen you come regular like seasons shadowing my dreams and the mississippi's mighty but it starts in Minnesota at a place where you could walk across with five steps down and i guess that's how you started like a pinprick to my heart but at this point you rush right through me and i start to drown and there's not enough room in this world for my pain signals cross and love gets lost and time passed makes it plain of all my demon spirits i need you the most i'm in love with your ghost i'm in love with your ghost dark and dangerous like a secret that gets whispered in a hush (don't tell a soul) when i wake the things i dreamt about you last night make me blush (don't tell a soul) when you kiss me like a lover then you sting me like a viper i go follow to the river play your memory like the piper and i feel it like a sickness how this love
The mind is grey,... like the city
Packing in and overgrown
Love is deep,... dig it out
Standing in a hole alone
Working for something,.. that we can never hold
A place in the clouds.
Your place to hide oh my oh
I'm flying away, away
I'm driving away, away
The TV, she talks to me
Breaking news and building walls
Selling us, what I dont need
Didn't know soap made you taller
So I'm riding away, away
Hiding away, away
So much talk it makes no sense at all
So I'm flying away, away
Driving away, away
Passing old friends I don't miss at all
It doesn't hurt,.. when I bleed
BUt memories they eat me
I've seen it all before,..
Bring it on cause I'm no victim
Dying
I feel I never told you
The story of the ghost
That I once knew and talked to
Of whom I'd never boast
For this was my big secret
How I'd get ahead
And never have to worry
I'd call him instead
His answer came in actions
He never spoke a word
Or maybe I laid down the phone
Before he could be heard
I somehow feel forsaken
Like he had closed the door
I guess I just stopped needing him
As much as once before
But maybe he's still with me
The latch was left unhooked
He's waiting in the wind and rain
I'm the ghost in your house
Calling your name
My memory lingers
You'll never be the same
I'm the hole in your heart
I'm the stain in your bed
The phantom in your fingers
The voices in your head
One touch is all it took
To draw you in
To leave you hooked
One kiss, you paid the price
You had a taste
Of paradise
Now you're running in circles
Chasing imaginary footsteps
Reaching for shadows
In the bed where I once slept
I'm the ghost in your house
Calling your name
My memory lingers
You'll never be the same
I'm the hole in your heart
I'm the stain in your bed
The phantom in your fingers
The voices in your head
One thought is all it takes
You lose control
You make mistakes
This pain will never leave
Until I die
You'll always grieve
Now you're falling to pieces
Seeing my face wherever you go
Talking to strangers
I've been dancing round your grave
Cos' I'm always much to scared
Hope you've longed to say
I never liked the way you dressed
Or the cheap ways you impressed
It gets better now your dead
Thats O.K.
I'm not afraid
Not afraid what anyone says now
I can sit around all day
Don't need to hear you say
You'll regret it at my age
And I'm frozen on this stage
I'm blinded by the gaze
Waited for me to say
Its not O.K.
To be this scared
???????????
I don't need your ghost
Coming back, coming back coming back
Just as the dark began to fall
I caught you singing in the hall
digging graves in my living room
red roses in full bloom
a hanging lamp floats down the hall
i believe in ghosts
though ghosts i never see
ghosts are in my house
they're making fun of me
i can't wake up
from this nightmare
slamming doors when i try to sleep
see me scared the more they reap
Like a ghost before me
You walked back into my life
Now I'm so confused
Emotions bruised
You can't turn the clock back baby
It was far too long ago
I may look the same
But people change
Now you're making me confused
(bridge 1)
Now I can see so clearly
Which road I have to take
Though my heart says go
My head tells me no
Don't make the same mistake
(chorus)
You're a ghost come back to haunt me
Right before my eyes
Memory taunting me
You fill my head with lies
Tried to put the past behind me
Didn't want anybody to know
What I felt inside
Had to hide
Couldn't let my feelings show
(bridge 2)
Now I can see so clearly
The road I have to take
Though my heart says go
My head tells me no
Don't make the same mistake
(chorus x 2)
Ghost gonna haunt you
Like a ghost gonna haunt you
(ad lib)
(A. Bell / V. Clarke)
Go to bed, sleepyhead.
The voice of all got away.
You must be brave, ride the wave,
see the World in a day.
I'm sorry, she's a lady,
but a ghost from the past.
Haven't seen my honey lately;
said our love wouldn't last.
Soldier blue, we've come for you.
Half a crown for the chest.
The little bird, she felt your love,
perhaps us all for the best.
I'm sorry, she's a lady,
but ghost from the past.
Haven't seen my sugar lately;
said our love wouldn't last.
Woah!
But a ghost from the past.
Woah!
Hero.
Woah!
Hero.
Go to bed, you sleepyhead.
The voice of all got away.
You must be brave, ride the wave,
save the World in a day.
No, I'm sorry, she's a lady,
but ghost from the past.
Where's my honey been lately?
Said our love wouldn't last.
Woah!
Hero.
Woah!
Hero.
You can hear the burst. Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? Are you everywhere?
Can you really fly? Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? You can be at want.
You can hear the burst. Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? Are you everywhere?
Can you really fly? Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? You can be at want.
You can hear the burst. Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? Are you everywhere?
Can you really fly? Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? You can be at want.
You can hear the burst. Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? Are you everywhere?
Can you really fly? Can you feel the air?
Can you see the light? You can be at want.
Can you really fly? Can you really fly?
Can you really fly? Can you see the light?
A ghost from the past.
Said our love wouldn't last.
A ghost from the past.
Said our love wouldn't last.
A ghost from the past. (can you really fly?)
Said our love wouldn't last.
A ghost from the past. (can you really fly?)
Said our love wouldn't last.
A ghost from the past. (can you really fly?)
Said our love wouldn't last.
A ghost from the past. (can you really fly?)
[VERSE 1:]
Said goodbye to him
No regrets no second thoughts
Just kept my heart moving
Tears fell from his eyes
I didn't care I pushed through it
He ain't the one
I thought I might as well keep on looking
So I turn my back, no strings attached
[HOOK:]
Now I'm sitting at my place with my face buried in my hands
Cause everything that I touch fades away like a grain of sand
No love that I try to keep ever seems to last
Dam, This really hurts
Leaving you was a curse so...
[CHORUS:]
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me like a ghost
Everywhere I go I see your ghost
When I go to sleep I see your ghost
And it haunts me like a ghost
Like a ghost
Like a ghost
[VERSE 2:]
1, 2, 3, 4
Moved on to another
Tall, dark, sexy and confident kind of brother
Kept my body hot all day and night like it was summer
That's why I shouldn't be reminiscing
My man I love ya
Cause I turned my back
No strings attached
[HOOK:]
Now I'm sitting at my place with my face buried in my hands
Cause everything that I touch fades away like a grain of sand
No love that I try to keep ever seems to last
Dam, This really hurts
Leaving you was a curse so...
[CHORUS:]
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me like a ghost
Everywhere I go I see your ghost
When I go to sleep I see your ghost
And it haunts me like a ghost
Like a ghost
Like a ghost
[BRIDGE: x4]
4, 3, 2, 1
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh oh ohhhh
Ohhhh ohhhhhhhhhhhh
Like a ghost
Ghost ohh
[CHORUS:]
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me
If I did you wrong [x3]
I'm sorry
Cameras comin on [x3]
It haunts me like a ghost
Everywhere I go I see your ghost
When I go to sleep I see your ghost
And it haunts me like a ghost
Like a ghost
I'm a ghost
I'm driftin' into oblivion
Just a gray, old ghost
And a messy oblivion
Well I've had my hopes
They're not what they used to be
I've had hopes
That's between you and me
I've been thinking
I could find some meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I've been thiking
Your love could give me meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I think I could love, if you show me
What your lovin' is
I think you could show me with a little kiss
Just a little kiss
If you're my host
Don't serve me no misery
If you're some host
Don't serve me no misery
'Cause I've had dreams
Sure, they're not what they used to be
Yeah, I've had dreams
But, that's between you and me
I've been thinking
I could find some meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I've been thinking
Your love could give me meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I think I could love, if you show me
What your lovin' is
I think you could show me with a little kiss
Just a little kiss
A need a fix and a kiss
Like this
Owwwwww
Well, if you're some queen
Don't delude me with grandeur
If you're some queen
Don't delude me with grandeur
'Cause I've been brought down
By false love's power
I've been knocked to the ground
By false love's power
I've been thinking
I could find some meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I've been thinking
Your love could give me meaning
I could start believing
'stead of killing time
I think I could love, if you show me
What your lovin' is
I think you could show me with a little kiss
Just give me a kiss
Not a punch and a kick
Owwwwww, fix me
Well, all right
The leather soles go shufflin' in
Stinking of smoke and ten cent gin
Now who will toast our noble host
Who has this mornin' given up the ghost?
The wooden coffer hand to hand
Kind words are offered, silent prayers
But she is satisfied the most
While stabbing madly at the roast
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
The creditor rides with his men
The death of debtors, he won't forgive
They repossess his silver eyes
Now in the potter's field, he lies
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
Waitin' for a dead man's shoes
Have you heard the latest news?
Lazarus is back from the dead
Lookin' as one would expect
Drippin' with the waters of Sheol
Babblin' about body and soul
And then he found his wife in their bed
Buck, naked and already wed
The tax collector beneath his sheets
The door swings open, floorboards creak
Now who will toast our noble host
Who has this mornin' given up the ghost?
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain receive no reprieve
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
The sons of Cain will receive no reprieve
The rib of Adam, the eyes of Eve
I saw a dream
That the world's disappeared
I thought I'd be
Breaking down every rule
I saw a dream
That the world's in a scheme
I thought I'd be
Hiding out every clue
Here I am
Watching all people's laughter
Here I am
Watching those people
I'm in love with a ghost
It's a beautiful thing in the world
I'm in love with a ghost
Such a beautiful thing in the world
I saw a dream
That the world's disappeared
I thought I'd be
Breaking down every rule
I saw a dream
That the world's in a scheme
I thought I'd be
Hiding out every clue
Here I am
Watching all people's laughter
Here I am
Watching those people
I'm in love with a ghost
It's a beautiful thing in the world
I'm in love with a ghost
Such a beautiful thing in the world
everybody has a ghost
everybody has a ghost who sings like you do
yours is not like mine
but it's alright, keep it up
boy loses rib in new orleans
he can't help eyein' up the whores
under the bridge
boy loses rib and lets a hellified cry into the dark
where did i go wrong?
where did i go wrong?
i never needed this before
i need a woman to help me feel
everybody has the dream
everybody has the dream like a world tattoo
yours is not like mine, it's alright, keep it up
the scalped dives into the skin
good doctors never leave a scar
no proof again
i'll taake the myth, you take the blood
it's all the same to the world dreamer
it's all the same in the end
boy loses rib in new orleans
he trades some ether for a chance
under the bridge
boy loses rib as he's summoned to the mud
flat on his back
My eyes skim the crowd i try and find you as if you were never there
But i could have sworn i saw you standing there with that look in your eyes
Proud and strong by my side you're on my mind you're out there i feel it
I've been around in the runaway places
I've seen them all where the angels bleed
I've lost and found all your traces
I guess I tried for the reason you loved me
Until you find out
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to find
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to mind
There's no-one home tonight
Ghost
What comes around the fall embraces
And seals it all till the winter's deep
What's been love the pain replaces
I guess I lied for the reason you loved me
Until you find out
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to find
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to mind
There's no-one home tonight
There's a letter on the desktop that I dug out of a drawer
The last truce we ever came to in our adolescent war
And I start to feel the fever from the warm air through the screen
You come regular like seasons shadowing my dreams
And the Mississippi's mighty but it starts in Minnesota
At a place that you could walk across with five steps down
And I guess that's how you started like a pinprick to my heart
Now you rush right through me and I start to drown
And there's not enough room in this world for my pain
Signals cross and love gets lost and time passed makes it plain
Of all my demon spirits I need you the most
I'm in love with your ghost
Dark and dangerous like a secret that gets whispered in a hush
When I wake the things I dreamt about you last night makes me blush
And you kiss me like a lover then you sting me like a viper
I go follow to the river play your memory like a piper
And I feel it like a sickness how this love is killing me
I'd walk into the fingers of your fire willingly
And that's the edge of sanity, I've never been this close
I'm in love with your ghost, I'm in love with your ghost
Unknowing captor, you never know how much you
Pierce my spirit but I can't touch you
Can you hear it, a cry to be free?
I'm forever under lock and key as you pass through me
Now I see your face before me, I would launch a thousand ships
To bring your heart back to my island as the sand beneath me slips
As I burn up in your presence and I know now how it feels
To be weakened like Achilles with you always at my heels
This bitter pill I swallow is the silence that I keep
It poisons me, I can't swim free, the river is too deep
Though I'm baptized by your touch, I am no worse than most
I'm in love with your ghost, I'm in love with your ghost
Yeah, whoa whoa
Yeah, whoa whoa
Haha
Yeah
My name is Scott Mescudi
Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Yeah
Gotta get it through my thick head
I was so close to bein' dead, yeah
Life, live it, nobody sell tips
Man, I'm just walkin' without bein' led
See the world is so crazy and filled with such risk
I just know I gotta dodge them
The beginnings are followed by an end
In the in-between time I'm not runnin' or hidin' in
See, things
Come
Around
And make sense eventually
Things
Come
Around
But some things trouble me
The people I met and the places I've been
All will make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm mostly confused about the world I live in
They think that I'm lonely, well I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost? Yeah
Na-na-na na-na-na-na whoa whoa whoa haha yeah
Yeah yeah whoa-whoa Yo
Tried to fight it
And soon I gave in
Down a road with no lights on
Can't describe it, and you don't move like them
You've become their worst nightmare
You remember the things that your parents have said
You'd rather find out the hard way
You should tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend
I keep with my stroll, I'm not runnin' or hidin' in
See things
Come
Around
And make sense eventually
Things
Come
Around
And some things still trouble me
The people I met and the places I've been
All will make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm mostly confused about the world I live in
They think that I'm lonely, well I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost? Yeah
Na-na-na na-na-na-na whoa whoa whoa haha yeah
Yeah yeah whoa-whoa Yo
Mmm-oohh
I hope they understand that I really understand that they don't understand
I hope they understand that I really understand that they don't understand
I really understand that they
I really think I um...
I hope they understand that I really understand that they don't understand...woah
Listen to me
Whoa-oa-oa
Listen to me
I climbed down, to watch the tide
Mark the time that slips away
Where the oceans meet the sky
The drawing out of self
And bitter cold goes side by side
The self-sustained obscurity
The sense I can't maintain
The ghost that never wanes
I walk out to meet my fate
In the receding of the day
In hope the tide will grant me stay
From the ghost that never wanes
So torn and frayed
My times, lives, faces,
None can wear away
Time slips away
Let them rest upon the waves
Peace at last for those who wait
Before I go out too far
Before the depth I seek moves further away
I walk out to meet my fate
In the receding of the day
In hope the tide will grant me stay
Tell me there's no need to be afraid
They're only shadows cast, past this place
Where voices carry at the speed of sound
If I should cry before they lay me down
Sorry for the words, words I left unsaid
Sorry being one of the words I did forget
All the time we spent, wasted in the end
Every precious moment taken for granted
There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head
Shelter from the storm when I sleep
There's comfort in the morn, a siren sings
If only for a moment, I can breathe
The thought of you comes crashing through on me
Sorry for the words, words I left unsaid
Sorry being one of the words I did forget
All the time we spent, wasted in the end
Every precious moment taken for granted
There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head
Ghost you're in my head
Tell me there's no need to be afraid
They're only shadows cast past has played
Where voices carry at the speed of sound
If I should die before I lay me down
I'm sorry for the way, the way I treated you
A little bit too late, but if you only knew
I'd take away the pain, pain I put you through
I'd do it all again walking in your shoes
There in the corner of my mind
Lies the weight of my regret
Between the shadow and the light
Ghost you're in my head
Ghost you're in my head
No more phone calls
No more letters
No more fighting
In a matter
Than I ever felt before
I don't miss you
I don't want you
I don't need you
And I'd love to say
I could not ask for more
But if all that's true
And it all makes sense
Then I'm okay I guess
'Cause I don't believe in ghosts
I wouldn't call me superstitious
But something's in the air that I can't see
I swear I feel you breathe
Like you're lying next to me
If you've really set me free
Tell me baby why ya haunting me, yeah
This is crazy
You're so clever
'Cause baby I would never
Think to do
These things you do
Showin' up in
All my dreams and
Teasing me until I scream
I thought you said
I don't love you
But that's not fair
It isn't right
So give me back my life
'Cause I don't believe in ghosts
I wouldn't call me superstitious
But something's in the air that I can't see
I swear I feel you breathe
Like you're lying next to me
If you've really set me free
Tell me baby why ya haunting me, yeah
I'm afraid to close my eyes
And not go to bed
And turn out the lights
I never know just what I'm gonna see
Never know exactly where you'll be
'Cause I don't believe in ghosts
I wouldn't call me superstitious
But something's in the air that I can't see
I swear I feel you breathe
Like you're lying next to me
If you've really set me free
Tell me baby why ya haunting me, yeah
Why ya haunting me, yeah
"Ghost"
I feel the things I said
but never said how I felt
I know I waited much too long
could I get it in your head
without a head full of doubt
looking back it seems that I
went about it all wrong
Lying alone in the bed we made
watching headlights on the shades
the ghosts that sleeping by your side
are my promises to you that died
to you that died
Wasn't long ago
when forever was our friend
but now freedom's what I feel inside
it hurts so much to let you go
to know we'll never touch again
when I walk if I fall down
can I take it in stride
Lying alone in the bed we made
watching headlights on the shades
the ghosts that sleeping by your side
are my promises to you that died
to you that died
I might let you go, but i'll never go away
I might let you go, but i'll never go away...yeah
I feel the things I said
but never said how I felt
I know I waited much too long
Lying alone in the bed we made
watching headlights on the shades
the ghosts that sleeping by your side
are my promises to that died
lying alone in the bed we made
watching headlights on the shades
the ghosts that sleeping by your side
are my promises to you that died
to you that died
I can be ice
I can move up your spine
In your head, just behind
The hand on your shoulder
Pushing your shadows
I move like a spider
I can't see you now
But I won't step aside
I'll walk a straight line
Straight into your arms
Holding you close
Yeah, I'm pulling you out of the [?]
[?] moon, lantern light
Steady your heart
Don't you trust what you see?
The corner of your eye
Catch me in silence
Run if you're scared
I do recognise you
Yes I know your soul
Callous, so sure
Talking [???]
Ravenous, if you will
I can't feel you now
But I won't step aside
I'll walk a straight line
Straight into your arms
Holding you close
Yeah, I'm pulling you out of the dark
There's a hole in the sky
And I'm reaching inside
If ever I needed you
Come to me now
I'm holding the light
Pulling you out
Yeah I'm pulling you out of the cold
Bring back the heroes
Bring back the poets
All of the bright lights
i saw a ghost beside my bed
she said to me she wasn't dead
she wore a ribbon in her hair
she smiled and vanished in the air
is she real or am i going crazy? (x2)
i couldn't sleep, lay still and thought
about her eyes and smile i adored
she had a way i'd never seen
i fell in love you won't believeis she real or am i going crazy? (x2)
in the morning when i awoke
there was no surprise just sun and more
but what is that there i see?
a ribbon on the floor for me
she is real and i'm not crazy (x2)
I fell in love in high school
With a brown haired, green eyed girl
I walked her home most everyday
Held her hand, I held the world
We made our plan to run away
I couldn't wait to share her life
We started countin down the days
She couldn't wait to be my wife
I got a job and bought a car
I turned 18 that spring
By summer, had my own place
And I bought my baby's ring
I fell in with the wrong crowd
Breakin laws, I broke her heart
By autumn, was in handcuffs
Baby's cryin out in her front yard
And that's what hurt the most
I saw it in her green eyes
She had seen a ghost
My mamma saw me every week
Tried her hardest not to cry
She told me that she loved me
Disappointment in her eyes
I said, "Mamma, I love you too,
I'm gonna make you proud one day"
A month before I got out
They told me mamma passed away
And that's what hurt the most
I saw it in her sad eyes
Her son was a ghost
I hate this life I chose
Long before she died
Her son was a ghost
Now I got my freedom
But it feels like emptiness
In front of the apartment
Where your sister says you live
And there's another man
Who fills my empty shoes
And darling you don't see me
But you know that I see you,
I drift off...
I'm gonna fade away
Beyond the city lights
I'm gonna fade away
Through the empty night
I wanna fade away
Drifting out your life
I wanna fade away
Through the empty night
I'm gonna fade away
Beyond the city lights
I'm gonna fade away
Through the emty night
Do you remember when the walls fell
Do you remember the sound that the door made when you closed it
on me
Do you know that i went down to the ground
Landed on both my broken hearted knees
I didn't even cry
Because pieces of me had already died
I'm a ghost
Haunting these halls
Climbing up walls that I never knew were there
and I'm lost
Broken down the middle of my heart, heart
I'm broken down the middle of my heart, heart, heart
You know you make me a ghost
You make me a ghost
I'm an invisible disaster
I keep trying to walk but my feet don't find the solid ground
It's like living in a bad dream
I keep trying to scream but my tongue has finally lost its sound
I've got to say goodbye
To the pieces of me that have already died
I'm a ghost
Haunting these halls
Climbing these walls that I never knew were there
And i'm lost
Broken down the middle of my heart, heart
I'm broken down the middle of my heart, heart, heart
You know you make me a ghost
Oh you make me a ghost
You make me a ghost (you take the breath all away from me, you
take it away)
You make me a ghost
I don't cry
I don't try anymore
I'm a ghost
I'm a ghost
And I'm lost
Broken down the middle of my heart, heart
I'm broken down the middle
I'm a ghost
Haunting these halls
Climbing up walls that I never knew were there
And i'm lost
Broken down the middle of my heart, heart
I'm broken down the middle of my heart, heart, heart
You know you make me a ghost
I know what you're looking for
You've looked in these eyes before
And all you saw was blue green water
Searching for a mirror
That would show the world not who you are
But who you wanna be
And you thought you'd found that one in me
But it's been a long time since I heard that name
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
you can wait here if you want
But I don't think he's coming back
He doesn't live here anymore
Sure you've found the right place
The same address you knew before
But that won't change what lies behind the door
And what lies underneath had to change from the inside out
He doesn't live here anymore
Don't know where he's residing
I think it's better if you go
Cause I don't want him coming back
Yes I know the name sounds a little bit familiar
Like a melody to a dream
Yes I know he wore the same face, the same clothes
But that was so long ago
I know who you want to find
Somewhere is the memory of somebody I left behind
Well lets take it all in stride
Yeah it's that time to say goodbye
Something hiding behind me
Something hiding behind me
I know what do you think of me
Tripping the line stuck in the mud
Somebody in my lane
Who who who I said freak
Somebody in this place
Has been put out to grass
I said it could be you
The ghost in my life
I WONT LIE I WONT HATE I WONT CRY I WONT SHAKE
I'M THE GHOST IN THE WAY
You sold me down the river, my friend
You said you were my best friend, never again
Where is England now?
Is it America?
Where is my home?
It's not where it was
Is that a stupid word
I found another day?
I WONT SHY I WONT SAY I WILL FALL IN THE WAY
SO SAY WHY I'M THE GHOST IN THE WAY?
What do I do and what do I say?
What do I know and what should I save?
I'm still playing at being a prayer
What do I know and what should I say?
Give me your smile to show me your faith
Prose in my head, I am the bird
And this obsession is turning back, turning back
Take me to the ladder and force me into place
Take me to the ladder and put me in my place
What do I do and what do I say?
What do I know and what should I save?
I am still playing at being a prayer
What do I know and what do I care?
What do I know and why should I share?
I'm still playing at being a prayer
At this unholy hour
At this unholy place
At this unholy hour
I AM THE GHOST IN THE WAY I AM THE GHOST IN THE WAY
Hey, stop on a dime.
Take both your hands,
reach them above, one at a time.
Are you alone in here?
I heard the voice so clearly.
I tried not to breathe.
Tried not to speak.
Clamping my tongue between my teeth.
Are you alone in here?
I heard the voice so clearly say,
Well, there are fine lines I've seen we are stuck in between.
With separate eyes to use and throw aside.
How we die, nobody wants to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
Where everybody goes.
Oh, no, this can't be it.
I start to sweat.
Haunted by all the things I've missed.
This can't be right.
I realize right then that it's me or him, yeah.
There are fine lines I've seen we are stuck in between.
With separate eyes to use and throw aside.
How we die, nobody has to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
Where everybody goes.
(What if I don't?)
Oh, no, I can't believe this.
I don't know why this had to happen.
I had no choice.
Well, it was me or him.
There's a fine line between what is justified or just obscene.
Fragile lines to use and throw aside.
How to die, nobody wants to know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
How we die, no, I will never know.
Who decides where everybody goes.
..I want to be your angel
but it's not supposed to be
I want to keep you out of danger
But it's not one of my abilities
I'm just a ghost
Not really here
But there for you
And I do care
I'm by your side
I'll follow you
You're in my heart
What can I do
In the night when you're asleep
We can really be together
Our emotions are so deep
Why just can't we dream forever
I'm just a ghost
Not really here
But there for you
And I do care
I'm by your side
I'll follow you
You're in my heart
What can I do
only you ... can see me
You can hear what I say
only you can talk to me
in a very special way
I'm just a ghost
Not really here
But there for you
And I do care
I'm by your side
I'll follow you
You're in my heart
I want to slam the coastline
I want to hammer trees
You know I like it
We used the bend the risers
And the maple leaves
You know I like it
Because it’s you to wonder
How I drive
Because it’s you I wanted
For now
We used the burn the lamplight
On the rainy Sundays
You know I like it
I want to drive the highway
I want to feel the breeze
You know I like it
Because it’s you to be
My ageless ghost
Because it’s you I wanted
For now
(Mark Erelli)
I'm not the kind to believe in superstition
Lately the truth I have seen is stranger than non-fiction
You race through my blood, some kind of sweet addiction
Heaven help the fool who falls in love
I sleepwalk the streets of this town looking for your face
Ain't got nothing to show right now, but I can't give up the chase
Won't you give me a sign, some kind of saving grace
You're the only one I'm thinking of
Can't get you off my mind
I must be going insane
All these streets look the same
Nobody answers when I call out your name
CHORUS
I need you the most
When you're not around
I'm in love with your ghost
You're invisible now
I know that it's wrong
To keep holding on to something you can't even see
Guess you can already see that my heart is haunted
You are all that I need, everything I've ever wanted
Lost myself somewhere in between, can't you hear me calling
Wish I may, wish I might
First star I chance to see tonight
Wish I could disappear right now
Fade into this faceless crowd
'Cause I'm so sick and tired of missing you out loud
I think I'm about to go ghost, ain't nobody see me,
I'm riding round in my locks, leave me
You can hear the bass beating like
Coming through the speakers like
I think I'm about to go ghost, Casper on these niggers,
Really ain't one to boss but I'm doing better than most.
In the situation I'm in most of y'all would fumble
But I carry on on my own, I'm in the couple alone.
Doing by a hundred and ten, trying to run away from my problems
One day away from snapping, can't see no other option,
And ain't nothing new to my lifestyle, can't nobody catch me right now,
Now all of a sudden I gotta make a decision
To inspire y'all to be different, who's responsibility is it?
Back then I was a nothing, what you are on my bump,
Fall high off that low, but the gas never low.
I think I'm about to go ghost, ain't nobody see me,
I'm riding round in my locks, leave me
You can hear the bass beating like
Coming through the speakers like
I think I'm about to go ghost, ain't nobody see me,
See through the floor, be me,
And you can hear the bass beating like
Coming through the speakers like.
I think I'm about to go ghost, riding round in my locks
For the sanchees and all, black, I barely see the road.
I ride for my niggers and I ride out for my folks,
I know navigation, gotta stick to the code.
Say one you get on you, forget where you came from,
I never changed, stay the same to the grave.
Coming through your speakers,
They talking about me, can't understand what they're speaking.
Think I'm about to get low, trying rock and roll
And my eyes look like rotts, hand out the window.
One hand on the road, me on the wheel,
With my foot on the pedal just tryin to keep it real.
I think I'm about to go ghost, ain't nobody see me,
I'm riding round in my locks, leave me
You can hear the bass beating like
Coming through the speakers like
I think I'm about to go ghost, ain't nobody see me,
See through the floor, be me,
And you can hear the bass beating like
Coming through the speakers like.
I think I'm about to go ghost,
Riding around in my locks,
Lately I've been thinking
Lately I've been dreaming with you
I'm so resistant to this type of thinking
Oh, now it's shining through
I was alone for the last time
Before my night's vacation with you
Alive from the first
Now I'm denied by the ghost of you
You take yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
I know there's little use in crying
It's more wide awake and dying then I'm used to
I thought we'd walk these streets together
Now I'm hoping that I'll never have to meet you
Step aside from all this anger
And somewhere in between I can feel you
Ask me should we try again
I'm thinking no
Y'know, it's not what I believe in
It's not what I believe in
You take yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
You make yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
No I, wanna taste you, love
No I...no I
No I, just wanna taste you, love
Standing in your shoes
I turn and now
You're standing bare in my doorway
I only wish that I had been prepared
I'm gonna have to go along with your way
Just take the plastic camera out
It's the pants you borrowed in the driveway
Alive from the first
Now I'm denied by the ghost of you
Make yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
You make yourself a photograph and laugh at me
Please
No I, wanna taste of love
No I...
I was alive from the first
Ghost ghost i know you live within me feel as
you fly in thunderclouds above the city into one
that i love with all that was left within me til we
tore in two now wings and rings and theres so
many waiting here for you
and she was born in a bottle-rocket 1929 with
wings that ringed around a socket right between
her spine all drenched in milk in holy water
pouring from the sky i know that she will live
forever all she won't ever die
and she goes and now she knows she'll never
be afraid to watch the morning paper blow into a
hole where noone can escape de-de-de-de-de-
de de-de-de-de-de-de de-de-de-de-de-de de-de-
de-de-de
and one day in nyc baby a girl fell from the
sky from the top of the burning apartment
building 14 stories high and when her spirit left
her body how it split the sun i know that she will
live forever all goes on and on and on and
and she goes and now she knows she'll never
be afraid to watch the morning paper blow into a
hole where noone can escape de-de-de-de-de-
de de-de-de-de-de-de de-de-de-de-de-de de-de-
Two lovers dressed in their nighting gowns
Sleeping but their souls are somewhere else
Nobody came when they called for help
There was a ghost in the boy's bedroom
Wearing the boy's mother's perfume
He didn't know he would see her soon
[Chorus:]
It's watching you change
It's somewhere in the house
You can't get away
And baby cried her eyes out
[x2]
There was a leak in the kitchen sink
The carpet was red, now it's faded pink
There was enough for the walls to drink
[Chorus x2]
We are blinded by the gleam
We are following the sheep
It's like nothing we have seen before
Now I can't tell us apart
Take the dollar from your heart
It has taken everything we are
Sheep! Dead! Meat!
I don’t believe in ghosts but there’s a ghost under my bed. He keeps me awake at night and he scares the shit out of me. He said “I’m here to keep you worried and I’m here to fight you. I’m here to make you cry I’m a ghost so I got the right to”. He makes my body cold and he makes my body shiver. He demands so much from me and I cannot deliver.
”You belong to me now Pablo no matter what they say. So don’t keep beggin’ me to leave you Pablo cause I’m here to stay. I’m gonna get you Pablo somehow, I’m gonna mess your mind up. I’m gonna pump in death in you, I’m gonna break you slowly”.
Once in a while when I fall asleep then he comes to me in nightmares. “You cannot escape from me I’m a demon you got to deal with”. I don’t expect any love from you but could you leave me alone for a while: Am I the only one around who deserves the presence of demons?
Chasing the dream no I never pick up the pen
Always assured, but I like it when we pretend
You should be around, they should just say when
You should make time
You should make time for them
My ever changing ghost
I think he loves them the most
He always shows you
When and how and where you went wrong
Always plan but never get things done
And I'll walk in the room and see you all sitting around
The love that you give is such a familiar sound
You just fly straight up and come the fuck down
You see a house fall because you built it on the wrong ground
My ever changing ghost
I think he loves them the most
The most
He always shows you
(Breakdown)
you are the ghost
that I miss the most
I keep on waiting and waiting and waiting
and I don't mind how long it takes
how long I wait
'cause you're my baby my baby my baby
so I don't mind how long
it takes
for you
to come to
to come to
to come to, oh, oh oh
I am the ghost
that you need the most
I keep on waiting and waiting and waiting
and I don't know why
it takes so long
to make my way home
but you're my baby my baby my baby
so I don't mind
how long
it takes
for you
to come to
to come to
to come to, oh, oh, oh
I don't mind
how long
it takes
for you
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Now I'm gone in your photograph
I bet you wish you could get me back
Now I'm stuck in your memory
A mistaken identity
What's her name?
What's she like?
Does she know that
You'll never treat her right?
What's her name?
What's she like?
Do you leave her
In the middle of the night?
You act like you just saw a ghost
I watch you getting way too close
Now I know why you're never there
Now I know so it's my turn to disappear
You act like you just saw a ghost
I caught you
(Caught you)
Now I know
Now I know why you're never there
Now it's my turn, watch me disappear
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
The only gift that you ever gave
Was that you let me just get away
I hope I haunt you in every dream
And you feel a little misery
What's her name?
What's she like?
I should warn her that
You'll never do her right
All your games
All your lies
I need to tell her
Maybe I can change her mind
You act like you just saw a ghost
I watch you getting way too close
Now I know why you're never there
Now I know so it's my turn to disappear
You act like you just saw a ghost
I caught you
(Caught you)
Now I know
Now I know why you're never there
(Never there)
Now it's my turn, watch me disappear
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Now you see me, now you don't
You must've thought I'd never go
Thanks to you, I'm taking back my soul
You act like you just saw a ghost
I watch you getting way too close
Now I know why you're never there
(Never there)
Now I know so it's my turn to disappear
(Disappear)
You act like you just saw a ghost
I caught you
(Caught you)
Now I know
Now I know why you're never there
(Never there)
Now it's my turn, watch me disappear
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Just like a go-go-ghost
Watch me go-go-ghost
Just like a go-go-ghost
Satellite fever got stuck in my throat.
Where could I run?
She was so gray, you know,
she is a ghost.
I coulda swore.
But Idon't know how to get back to the road.
She can still talk.
Now I see my body lying dead
With a trace of bullet throuth my head
No more bleeding, no more breath
Now my face is a mask of death
But I'm still near
Is it good or bad?
All I ever have done were mortal sins
Whisky, women, blood and all those things
Fiends from hell must come for me
But there's no one else around
I am left alone
What's wrong?
I'm dead but not gone...
I'm dead but not gone...
I'm dead but not gone...
I'm a ghost!!!
Nothing stops me I can walk where I like
I can go through walls and I can fly
No one sees me, no one hears
No one feels that I'm near
Now I'm gonna find
My killer.
Found that man but my revenge has failed
I can't even scratch him with my nail
I'm less dangerous than the air
I'm here but I'm just nowhere
To my killer I can do
No harm.
God or Satan you must let me out
I'm surrounded with indifferent crowd
It's a kind of prison cell
I am in my personal hell
My soul is lost in the world
Early morning, dreary horizon
Aching hands are pulling a millstone
Wailing from the cart
Moaning from a shattered heart
He’s burned down many a bridge
And he’s scared of walking in the dark
It hurts when the rain falls on his skin
Oh he is worn out from marching
And he’s forgotten for what he’s searching
Yet he keeps up the stride
We Held Our Breath
And Tried To Tow the Line
Now it's All a Memory
It's Getting Better All Time
I'd Rather Change the World
Than How I Feel Inside
You Had Your Mothers Broken Heart
Your Fathers Laughing Eyes
Now I Write Words Down for Ghost
And I Couldn't Help But Notice
Was That Just Goodbye
You Know I Couldn't Tell
A Heart That's made of Gold
Doesn't Mean That it's For Sale
You Taught Me How to Love
And Set Me Up to Fail
Gave Me Prayers Without the Words
A Cross Without The Nails
And Let Me Go
We Said We'd Try to Win
Or We Would Lose it All
Left You In The Sunshine
But Missed You Most of Fall
And All Those Little Things That
Seem to Take to Long
Said a Million Times I Loved You
But Only in A Song
Now I Just Can't Find The Notes
And I Couldn't Help But Notice
Was That Just Goodbye
You Know I Couldn't Tell
A Heart That's made of Gold
Doesn't Mean That it's For Sale
You Taught Me How to Love
And Set Me Up to Fail
Gave Me Prayers Without the Words
A Cross Without The Nails
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me Now
It Was Enough to Make It Right
Just Not Enough to Save Your Life
Was it Hard Enough to Know
That You Would Never Make it Home
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me [x2]
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me Now
And I Couldn't Help But Notice
Was That Just Goodbye
You Know I Couldn't Tell
A Heart That's made of Gold
Doesn't Mean That it's For Sale
You Taught Me How to Love
And Set Me Up to Fail
Gave Me Prayers Without the Words
A Cross Without The Nails
And Let Me Go
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me [x2]
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me Now
Yeah Yeah Yeah
I'm Just Getting Fine Wont You Save Me [x2]
Where were you in this world?
Where were you? I don't know.
I gave it all, and you gave none.
What's left inside is left undone.
This time confronted,
with all these ghosts I'm haunted.
Won't you bear my shame?
I made this mistake,
I hate to hear these words now.
I'll walk this path no more.
Now when you're looking down,
down upon me.
Well don't you
try and forget
what you have done.
It's stuck in me,
and I won't forget this time.
Where were you in all this world?
Where were you? I don't know.
I gave it all and you gave none.
What's left inside is left undone.
I gave it all,
you gave it none.
It's been so long
since you have gone.
You had the world,
you threw it out.
It'll all come back, too.
This time confronted,
with all these ghosts I'm haunted.
Won't you bear my shame?
I made this mistake,
I hate to hear these words now.
I'll walk this path no more.
Forget
what you have done.
It's stuck in me,
Time hasn't moved
not since the night I died
I'm walking my ghost
back to a frozen smile
Thinking out loud, whisper to no one
He knows he knows he knows I've been Untrue
Trapped in a frame,
captured like photographs
Everything's still just like how it was left
floating like fog, haunting my old life
he knows he knows he knows I've been untrue
He knows he knows he knows
Sees right through my ghost
The night I died our time froze
I walk back to him as my ghost
Time hasn't moved not since the night I died
I'm walking my ghost back to a frozen smile
I lay down my bones where we used to lay
But he knows he knows he knows I've been untrue
He knows he knows he knows
See's right through my ghost
The night I died our time froze
I walk back to him as my ghost
He knows just by the way I float in
Right from the very beginning
My times a record thats skipping
He must he must -oh!
He knows he knows he knows
See's right through my ghost
The night I died our time froze
I walk back to him as my ghost
I walk back to him as my ghost
I'm your dumb voice
I'm a ghost from the dark
I'm a black mirror
I'm a river of time
His heart is made of stone
you're his grey tomb
He has no voice, laughing silently
Bloody tears fall down to the empty hands from the
strange eyes
Weeping is the dark, the light, the lie and the
grey shadows in the black mirror
Now he is you
your lies are his eyes
Eyes of the ghost from the dark
you are the ghost from the dark
I'm your dumb voice
I'm a ghost from the dark
I'm a black mirror
I'm a river of time
Bloody tears fall down to the empty hands from the
strange eyes
Weeping is the dark, the light, the lie and the
Golden dust upon your skin, let's paint the blue sky all
in black
Life must be a strange cool thing, where do we have to go
to die?
Stop dreaming | We lose the ground
Stop wanting me | And bring it down
Stop praying | We'll die for sure
Stop loving me | And close the door
"…Watching bended trees at night, don't know when it's
time to leave
Stop the avalanche by hand, keep your tears in rusty
sieves…
The smell of all the years we've lost, hiding in this old
man's chair
You'll die beside me while I'll dream… everything will
disappear…"
Flaps of skin upon your lips, so close to my broken neck
your trembling voice is whispering "I'm not happy, but
You float just like an angel,
Through my mind everyday.
It's like I've caught sight of the afterlife,
And I think I'm on my way.
You know It's gonna take an exorcist,
To send me away.
I haunt you cause I want you.
Girl, what else can I say?
I haunt you cause I want you.
Girl, what else can I say?
Do you believe in me now,
Or do you think you're dreaming?
I'll show you how,
You make me feel just like a ghost,
Coming to life inside my host,
Possess you like an overdose,
Your ghost...
I'm this demon you've been seeing,
If that's what you've been told.
I'm just an apparition,
Truth been told,
The light in your soul,
I don't want to control you,
This is all I that know.
I've been possessed by your affection,
Now I'm begging for more...
I've been possessed by your affection,
Now I'm begging for more...
Do you believe in me now,
Or do you think you're dreaming?
I'll show you how,
You make me feel just like a ghost,
Coming to life inside my host,
Possess you like an overdose,
Your ghost...
Do you believe in me now,
Or do you think you're dreaming?
I'll show you how,
You make me feel just like a ghost,
Coming to life inside my host,
Possess you like an overdose,
Let me go... [x12]
Girl I never thought that you would be my ex
What we had was so so deeper then sex
And I threw it all away for just one night
From the streets to the sheets
Damn, why the hell I cheat?
Because of me, your favourite song is "To The Left"
I want you back but I know there's nothing left
And girl I swear it's like you haunting me inside
I'm doing everything I can to get you off my mind
I'm doing everything I can to shake you
Still see your face when I know you ain't there
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
Ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
All I wanna do is.. I wanna move on but I gotta get my mind off you
But if you still in love, tell me why's it so hard to do?
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
Ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
Girl I never ever wanted to...
imagine my life without you
Tell me why did I have to be such a fool
When you play with love, you gonna lose
Now whereever I go, it feels like you're there with me
Even when I'm with her, it's your face I see
And all I wanna do is get you off my mind girl
Wish I could go back in time and make everything right, but...
I'm going everything I can to shake you
Still see your face when I know you ain't there (you ain't there)
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost (yeah babe)
Ghost, you haunt me like a ghost (leave me alone)
All I wanna go is.. I wanna move on but I gotta get my mind off you (gotta get over you babe)
But if you still in love, tell me why's it so hard to go (noooo)
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost (ghost yeahhhh)
Ghost, (ghost yeahhhh) you haunt me like a ghost
Let me play it for you baby
Oooooohhhhh...
Let me go... [x13]
I'm going everything I can to shake you
Still see your face when I know you ain't there
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
Ghost, you haunt me like a...
All I wanna do is.. I wanna move on but I gotta get my mind off you
but if you still in love, tell me why's it so hard to do? (why is it so hard to do?)
You're like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost (Ooohhh)
(Ooooh) Ghost, you haunt me like a ghost, you haunt like a ghost, you haunt me like a ghost
You haunt me like a ghost
Ghost... [x4] (all I wanna do is get over you baby)
Ghost... [x3] (stop haunting me baby)
Ghost... [x7] (wish I could go back but I can't... can't get you off my mind... oh... oh baby)
Gotta get
Riverside on Friday night
My friends remain
They say your name
But my guard has gone
Put a brave face on
And make a smile you could hear
But you're not here
I'll trace the whole world to find your ghost
But wherever I go I'm alone
There's no-one else
Still living by myself
Yes I'm eating well
I still cook for two you know
And the bathroom's clean
Windows let the sun shine in
My complexion's clear
But you're not here
An empty bedroom
A silent phone
Wherever I go I'm alone
Wherever I go I'm alone
A stranger's face, a different place
I see you everywhere
It's funny how time does nothing
and doesn't seem to care
But..
I'll trace the whole world to find your ghost
Who could understand me now you're gone
I'll leave the bedroom
Unhook the phone
But wherever I go I'm alone
I'll trace the whole world to find your ghost
All the memories in pieces scattered on the floor
Had an argument that ended bad once more
All the misery and crying, I'm sick of trying
(To make you happy)
I don't wanna be why you leave
I just wanna be what you need
And I wanna see what you see
Since you walked away from this here
See I got nowhere to go and I just can't be alone
(This is my last chance)
'Cause I can't see baby down with someone else
(This is my last chance)
Every time I hurt you, I was hurting myself
Every time I hit it, hit it
You would always quit it, quit it
Got nothing left of my heart
Just a ghost in me
I don't recognize these feelings anymore
What happened to the future that was in store
I'm all hung up on lying, I'm sick of fighting
(I'll make you happy)
I don't wanna be why you leave
I just wanna be what you need
And I wanna see what you see
Why'd you walk away from this here
I got nowhere to go and I just can't be alone
(This is my last chance)
'Cause I can't see baby down with someone else
(This is my last chance)
Every time I hurt you, I was hurting myself
Every time I hit it, hit it
You would always quit it, quit it
Got nothing left of my heart
Just a ghost in me
(This is my last chance)
'Cause I can't see baby down with someone else
(This is my last chance)
Every time I hurt you, I was hurting myself
Every time I hit it, hit it
You would always quit it, quit it
Got nothing left of my heart
Just a ghost in me
I went and let my girl down
(And I'm so, so sorry)
You caught me on the rebound
(Baby)
It's my time to be real
To you
(To you, to you)
There's a ghost inside of me
(This is my last chance)
'Cause I can't see baby down with someone else
(This is my last chance)
Every time I hurt you, I was hurting myself
Every time I hit it, hit it
You would always quit it, quit it
Got nothing left of my heart
Just a ghost in me
(This is my last chance)
'Cause I can't see baby down with someone else
(This is my last chance)
Every time I hurt you, I was hurting myself
Every time I hit it, hit it
You would always quit it, quit it
Got nothing left of my heart
I can't believe my eyes (eyes)
I can't believe what I'm seeing (seeing)
What, what a surprise (surprise)
I can't, I can't, I can't believe it (believe it)
You used to be so many colours to me
Now when I look at you all I see is clear
And nothing else in this world mattered to me
Just as long as I had you near
I stepped right off the highest building
Thinking I could walk the sky
Tell me and I would believe
But this will be the last time you made me cry
Cause I see you're nothing but a smokescreen
A ghost, you're nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you don't exist no more
You're nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you don't exist no more
See you used to be my dream
Now all you do is haunt me
go.. go.. go.. (eh eh eh eh)
go... (eh eh eh eh)
go... (eh eh eh eh)
go... (eh eh eh)
I used to think heaven when I looked at you
Because you were an angel to me
But now all the hell that you took me through
Baby, you lost your wings
I used to feel like I was on top of world
With you I would go anywhere
Until I woke up at the bottom of this earth
And saw you both lying there
A ghost, you're nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you don't exist no more
You're nothing but a ghost to me
A ghost, and you don't exist no more
See you used to be my dream
now all you do is haunt me
go.. go.. go..(eh eh eh eh)
just go... (eh eh eh eh)
just go.. (eh eh eh eh)
just go .. (eh eh eh)
Ou you used to love me
But now slowly I see you drifting
Ever since you broke my heart in two
I don't wanna have nothing to do with you
Now even though I still love you boy
I gotta walk away from you boy
I got my strength (yes)
I can't do this (yes)
Scratch your name off my list
A ghost, you're nothing but a ghost to me (a ghost)
A ghost, and you don't exist no more (no more)
You're nothing but a ghost to me ( you're nothing but a ghost)
A ghost, and you don't exist no more (used to be)
See you used to be my dream (you and me)
now all you do is haunt me
go.. go.. go.. (eh eh eh eh)
Just go... Just go... (eh eh eh eh)
I can't believe my eyes (eyes)
I can't believe what I'm seeing (seeing)
What, what a surprise (surprise)
I can't, I can't, I can't believe it
I made you and your hate to socialize in a matter that suits me fine
So while I breathe in you punched my teeth in
I tried to explain it but you just
You just don't see
I, I see right through you
So you do things, mainly bad things
Is it to satisfy your own neurotic needs?
I got this feeling, now I'm just dreaming
But just make sure I'm awake when you punish me
Now come follow me, walk to that place where we both see
What happened to you?
Why didn't you see if it's all true?
Confide in me
I was blind but now I, I see right through all that you do
But though I see you I know you're not here with me
And still I try to explain to you
How your presence is affecting my state of mind
Oh suck me in, inside myself
I want to fucking taste myself
It drags me down, your dismal past
And all you want is to make that last
Oh suck me in, inside myself
I want to fucking taste myself
It drags me down, your dismal past
And all you want is to make that last
Oh suck me in, inside myself
I want to fucking taste myself
It drags me down, your dismal past
And all you want is to make that last
[Incomprehensible]
Don't want this, it's true what they say
Ignorance is bliss, find another way
In my mind it's all good now
Don't do things that's abnormal
They'll take me and put me away
Listen to me when I tell you I'm not insane
I see right through you
Absolute motion absolute freedom
As my soul leavesthe flesh and join the kingdom
Life's energy released to space, another cycle, another role to play
New enemies, new senses, memory deteriorates, feedings prevail
One with the cloud my breath the storm
My last tear the rain till the coming dawn
Chorus
Welcome
My kingdom
My kingdom
Join us
My kingdom
Your freedom
Leave the mortals come to us
I was sleeping but now I'm awake
Earth's experience was just the first stage
Unthinkable knowledge flesh cant tolerate
Knowledge that only the soul can embrace
I'm walking on sun
Cowards call me god
Hordes of souls
Accept my mark
Chorus
One with the mountain
The air the sky
Water and fire
Born of two; raised by four
I guess I took it all for granted
And only three remain
Even though you're wounded
I know that you're still here
I don't blame you
You just can't face the change
We spend our golden years as living ghosts
Caught in a constant state of purgatory
We are only burdened by our memories
Until the day they cease to exist
And we follow shortly after
Although I wonder if at any time
Our minds fell upon the same plane
I know they did
I just wish I had a chance to go back and appreciate it
But we'll always have the winter
And the snow that got you trapped behind the glass
You may be only a shell of the man that you used to be
But I love you just the same
And I will until the day you're gone
I just never know if I'm communicating with you or the disease
And even though I curse the idea of an afterlife
I still hope you're taken care of
You deserve to be at peace
Please don't forget my face
Ghost Lyrics
I’m taking scissors to all of the pictures of us
I’m cutting you out but it won’t be enough
It’s never enough
You’re still walking through my memories
I’ll never solve this mystery
I lie awake with echoes and whispers of you
I’m still haunted by you
And I can’t let you go if you’ve already gone
Can’t bring you life, it’s been way too long
Can’t move on, just can’t stop...
With the ghost of you in my heart
I see your face, I keep hearing your voice
Holding my breath and remembering every choice
I made a choice
Now you’ve taken all the life from me
Living ancient history
I lie awake with echoes and whispers of you
I’m still haunted by you
And I can’t let you go if you’ve already gone
Can’t bring you life, it’s been way too long
Can’t move on, just can’t stop...
With the ghost of you
The walls are closing in, I...
Just want this to end, I...
Thought you would leave me by now
But here you are again
I’m taking scissors to all of the pictures of us
I’m cutting you out but it won’t be enough
It’s never enough
I can’t let you go if you’ve already gone
Can’t bring you life, it’s been way too long
Can’t move on, just can’t stop...
No, I can’t let you go if you’ve already gone
Can’t bring you life, it’s been way too long
I Can’t move on, just can’t stop...
Look behind you,
Avoid the shadows,
Watch your back now,
Make your breathing shallow.
Keep your room locked,
And leave the blinds closed,
I'm right there staring at your window.
And all I need is you.
And all I need is you.
I'm in the background,
On the radio,
I'm in your car,
In your house,
Waiting at your door.
Under your footsteps,
I'm everything you know.
Just let me haunt, let me haunt,
Let me be your ghost.
Let me be your ghost.
Let me haunt, let me haunt,
Let me be your ghost.
You had your chance love,
You tried to stay strong.
You tried to let go,
Tell yourself you moved on.
But then it comes back,
That feeling in your bones,
Like I'm right there.
And all I need is you.
And all I need is you.
I'm in the background,
On the radio,
I'm in your car,
In your house,
Waiting at your door.
Under your footsteps,
I'm everything you know.
Just let me haunt, let me haunt,
Let me be your ghost.
Let me be your ghost.
Just let me be your ghost.
I'm in the background,
On the radio,
I'm in your car,
In your house,
Waiting at your door.
Under your footsteps,
I'm everything you know.
Just let me haunt, let me haunt,
Where were you in this world?
Where were you?
I don't know.
I gave it all, and you gave none.
What's left inside is left undone.
This time confronted, with all these ghosts I'm haunted.
Won't you bear my shame?
I made this mistake, I hate to hear these words now.
I'll walk this path no more.
Now when you're looking down, down upon me.
Well don't you try and forget what you have done.
It's stuck in me, and I won't forget this time.
Where were you in all this world?
Where were you?
I don't know.
I gave it all and you gave none.
What's left inside is left undone.
I gave it all, you gave it none.
It's been so long since you have gone.
You had the world, you threw it out.
It'll all come back, too.
Withdraw into your other world
I'm speaking but you do not hear a word
Glaze over colder than a lake
Frozen by your dispenses of late
It's clear as glass, you smash
My apparitions melt before your eyes
My skull is full of dreams and nothing's as it seems
In the black air under the trees
CHORUS
Do you even know that I'm here
I might as well be a ghost, it's true
You walk right through me
Look in the mirror, and you
You see nothing but yourself, it's true
I see right through you
It's true, you walk right through me
It's true, I see right through you
Blank pages surrounding your eyes
Overthrow the colours of your mind
Science has always been a lie
I can see you shiver in my fire
I'm falling like a snowflake
Catch me quick, before I disappear
I'm fading like the sun
As soon as I'm gone everything will come undone
(REPEAT CHORUS x2)
It's true I see right through you
Dissapear, dissapear,
but you're invisable,
yeah i lied, yeah i lied,
and now the cup is full,
full of hearts, full of hearts
oh yeah you wish it was,
full of hearts, full of hearts,
no time to spill no blood,
you want an explanation?
well i can't bothered to explain myself.
she said, she said, she said, she said, she said,
i hope you get the clap and die.
I hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around, this time around.
i hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around,
this time time around.
Fingers crossed, fingers crossed,
your hands behind your back,
wink your eye, wink your eye,
behind that angled hair,
full of hearts, full of hearts,
oh yeah you wish it was,
full of hearts, full of hearts,
no time to spill no blood,
let's move in sycopation,
i can't even syncopate myself.
he said, he said, he said, he said, he said,
I think i'm running out of time.
I hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around, this time around.
i hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around,
this time time around.
I've been running low on other you've been holding tight, oh no no,
i've been running low on other you've been holding tight, my brother, OH!
I hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around, this time around.
i hope i hope you got the most,
coz you'll be kissing this ghost,
this time around,
Hey don't you know
There's a ghost in my house
It called my name
Now I'm trying to get it out
Hey can't you see
They're talking bout you amd me
Despising words and patched up lies
Will never stand for alibis
My cup now filled to overflow
You think you're winning
But this is just the beginning
Hey, I tried to let you know
That it can't be done
As we swing from high and low
Hey have you heard
There's a profit to be shared
We've gone and sold our lives
So don't look so surprised
And you hate the taste
Of a mixed up world that's full of waste
Hurt, pain and despair
Well they fuel my every prayer
My cup now filled to overflow
You think you're winning
But this is just the beginning
Hey, I tried to let you know
That it can't be done
As we swing from high and low
My cup now filled to overflow
Learn your lesson well
Then you think your winning
When you come on wasted wheels,
you don't know which way is home.
When you've lost your place to be
you can feel it in your BONES.
When I feel the breeze through me
I don't know if I'm a GHOST.
So I try to sing something
like I'm feeling in my BONES.
Is it just me or is it everybody else?
It must be everyone to some degree.
Yes, I see myself in everybody else.
and maybe they can
(Let me go) x12
Verse 1
Girl I never thought thought you would be my ex,
Cuz what we had was so so deeper than sex,
And I threw it all away for just one night,
From the streets,
To the sheets,
Damn why the hell I cheat,
Because I knew your favourite song was 'to the left',(to the left)
I want you back but I know there's nothing left,(nothing left)
And girl I swear its like you're haunting me, inside,

Ghost yeah,
Ghost (You haunt me like a),
Are you breathin' when I'm in the air
Do you feel me when you comb your hair
Can you feel the rain hit the side as you walk around
Like an angel's heart, I'll fly high as a hidden cloud
And you know me, yes you know me
I said yes, yes you know me
Do you remember me, 'cause I know you
Do I scare you when I come too close
Does the room you're in come to sudden cold
I can hear you cry like a kid with an injured knee
I can see you pray for me before you lay to sleep
Do you know me, you should know me
I said yes, you should remember me
How can you feel alone at night even when I'm by your side
Can you hear me laugh in the wind, does it ease your mind
If you never see me again, I will always be your friend
Like an angel's heart, I'll blend within the wind
Do you see me, yeah, you should see me
I can fly, I can fly
How high? As high as the wind can fly
Yeah, you should know me
Oh! Yeah, I'm your ghost
I'm watching over you
Oh! I'm your ghost
If you never let me know, how will I know
How can I be your guide
Are you fearing death or life, can you make up your mind
[Tupac - speaking]
The only way, for me to come back, is by Makaveli
That's it! All these motherfuckers stole from me
I'm takin back what's mine
[slowed down voice]
{*laughing*} You motherfuckers can't stop me
Even if I die, I'm gon' be a fuckin problem
Do you believe in ghosts, motherfucker?
Real live black... ghosts
Feel me?
[Verse One: 2Pac]
Some say I'm crazy, these punk-ass cops can't fade me
Mama tried to raise me, but had too many babies
Papa was a motherfuckin, joke
Used to find dope in his coat
And nearly choked when he'd tell me not to smoke
Daaamn, don't get me started
My mama smoked so God damn much
when she was pregnant I'm surprised I ain't retarded
At night I can't sleep, can't peep
As they pass through the glass of my neighbors five deep
Starin at the wall, heard a scream
Wake up in the mornin
See the blood in the hall from the murder scene
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
On the corner, where the niggaz slang they crack
And the undercovers jack those that don't watch they back
(Five-OH!) I daydream about the dope world
Take a puff from the blunt and watch the smoke swirl
My mausberg goes BOOM, what's another plug
Snatchin drugs, pumpin slugs in these other thugs
(GIVE IT UP NIGGA) Don't run out of breath
Every step could be death 'til you blast
And be the last nigga left, then I'll be ghost
[Chorus: 2Pac]
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
Don't cry, just ask why, and try not to die
As I take you through a ghetto nigga's lullabye
[Verse Two: 2Pac]
A seven-deuce full of niggaz goes by
Thought I was trippin the second time they rolled, by
Recognized the plates, the faces looked familiar
Everybody swear they know the nigga that's gonna, kill ya
Don't murder me murder me, killa a nigga in his sleep
Let me die as I rest in peace, deep
Back to these niggaz in the seven-deuce
A mac-10 out the window bout to let it loose, what could I do?
Run for cover and return fire
DIE MOTHERFUCKIN DIE, hope yo' ass fry, don't ask why
But I let off everything I have
An empty clip, hit the ground as a nigga dash
On my ass was the motherfuckin cops now
Barely breathin tryin to keep from gettin shot down
BOO-YAOW is the sound, bullet whizzed by
Still runnin like a nigga got nine lives
Don't know why but I'm runnin to my fuckin block
Took a shot, tired of runnin from the niggaz and the cops
Time to be a ghost
(HEY MAN, COME THE FUCK ON!)
And then we'll be ghost
[Chorus]
[Tupac - speaking]
FUCK THE POLICE NIGGA! {*laughing*}

Japan! Tokyo!
Thus the boy becomes a curse
Horror! Terror!
This house the spawn of evil's birth
Her hair! Falls from!
The darkness of the living room
She kills:
Painted by ghosts!
Painted by ghosts
Unlock this curse
Eyes sore into nothing
Look back it's behind you
I'm painted by ghosts
The boy! He drowned!
In death the two become a pair
Her neck! Hung low!
Strangled by her very hair
The flies! My eyes!
Leads to the attic where she stairs
She kills:
Painted by ghosts!
She crawls to me slowly
And looks right into my eyes
I'm cornered by all sides
Am I going to die?
The truth has been shattered
The truth, is all lies
This grudge has consumed me
This grudge has choose me to die
How do you make a living, crawling crumbling stairs?
You have some beautiful legs, but the stairs... they just don't care.
And how you miss your mother, and the way she's almost there...
I know about the shame from the cyclones that she bares.
In this bed of weeds... grow tall and die with seeds.
Lonely miss aero plane is dropping parts all over the place...
But I still feel you in my clothes, in the cotton... it's that close...
And of all the floors to stand on, don't stand on this one here...
It cracked when all the wealth came back and claimed its share.
You've cursed the men who built it...
You've stomped it straight to tears...
I don't think you're just built like it... but be aware...
How do you make a living on musical chairs?
You love those pretty songs, but the chairs... they just don't care.
In this bed of weeds grow small and die with ease
Lonely miss aero plane has disappeared been kissed insane,
Dun'cha..dun'cha..
Don't wanna think about you,
Don't wanna go back in time,
Don't wanna remember what exactly happen in my life,
But I don't have a choice,
It intempted in my mind,
It like u haunted me,baby..
And I guess get the memories,
When I woke up and look up u next to me,
Even I fall asleep and I could only see u in the dream,
And every morning when the sun comes up,
Everyday I get remember,
It like u haunted me,Baby..
I'm buddying your ghost,
Cause everywhere I can see your shadow,
In window body,he's just made of round in your club,
I got your fingerprints all over my skins,
Don't you know?
Since you let me alone,
I just can buddying your ghost,
You got me buddying your ghost,
It's like I'm buddying your ghost,
Baby,you hunting me,
Baby,you hunting me,
No I don't scare too easy,
Don't mind it dark at all,
But now I'm so fragile,
You don't have to wait I called,
I feel you all around me,
But you not come back,
It's like you hunting me,baby..
And I guess get the memories,
When I woke up and look up you next to me,
Even I fall asleep know I could only see you in the dream,
And every morning when the sun comes up,
Everyday I get remember,
It like u haunted me,Baby..
I'm buddying your ghost,
Cause everywhere I can see your shadow,
In window body,he's just made of round in your club,
I got your fingerprints all over my skins,
Don't you know?
Since you let me alone,
I just can buddying your ghost,
You got me buddying your ghost,
It's like I'm buddying your ghost,
Baby,you hunting me,
Baby,you hunting me,
I can't take it,
I can't take this pain no more,
Without u baby,
No no wanna be apart,
I can make it,
I can make you come back home,
Now you just haunted me,
Uhh..no I can make it,
I can make it,I know,
But,I can't make it salvage,
It's look around,it already apart,
And I can't make you,
I can't make you come back home,
No no will not let you go...,
I'm buddying your ghost,
Cause everywhere I can see your shadow,
In window body,he's just made of round in your club,
I got your fingerprints all over my skins,
Don't you know?
Since you let me alone,
I just can buddying your ghost,
You got me buddying your ghost,
It's like I'm buddying your ghost,
Baby,you hunting me,
Japan! Tokyo!
Thus the boy becomes a curse
Horror! Terror!
This house the spawn of evil's birth
Her hair! Falls from!
The darkness of the living room
She kills:
Painted by ghosts!
Painted by ghosts
Unlock this curse
Eyes sore into nothing
Look back it's behind you
I'm painted by ghosts
The boy! He drowned!
In death the two become a pair
Her neck! Hung low!
Strangled by her very hair
The flies! My eyes!
Leads to the attic where she stairs
She kills:

She crawls to me slowly
And looks right into my eyes
I'm cornered by all sides
Am I going to die?
The truth has been shattered
The truth, is all lies
This grudge has consumed me
You say you show yourself everyday
But where's my words from a God so great
Blown by the wind you said you made
But I don't see it
I think I lost you
I use to believe without seeing
But they burnt down the bridges
From my heart to yours
Sometimes it's like
Your some kind of Ghost
But I can't lie
Your life to my soul
Everybody else gets the blame
But it's only me who has walked away
I ain't that bad I'm ok
I don't know what I'm doing or where I'm going
When I get there and I sort things out
I hope, I hope that I do it well
It's the excitement, the anxiety then the let down
So it's vivid dreams that fall away from our memory
I won't be your sorrow anymore
Or that crutch that validates those pictures inside your head
When you hear this song I hope your ears bleed
'Cause it's in this song that I hear you
When you hear this song I hope you head for the hills
When you hear this song I hope your ears bleed
When you hear this song I hope you head for the hills
It's that that you'll find me and you'll lose me
I have seen a Ghost
A ghastly, ghoulish Dame
Astray on astral planes
Alone
I have seen a Ghost
A maiden misty-eyed
So silently she glides
Alone
Alone
Lonely forevermore
Alone
I have seen a Ghost
She trembled and her tears
Betrayed a billion years
Alone
Alone
Lonely forevermore
Alone
I have seen a Ghost
And thus she spoke to me:
Once I was like thee
Alone
I have seen a Ghost
Then I turned the lights on
I looked around - I was
The ghost of our love wakes me in the night
just to remind me that I’m drowning this time
the ghost of our love sends shadows through the stars
like headlights ‘cross the ceiling in the deepest dead of dark.
You haunt my heart.
The ghost of our love stands over me tonight
and mocks my best intentions with its saber-tooth spotlight
the ghost of our love left lipstick on the glass
a kiss of death that surely meant we’d played our funeral march.
You haunt my heart.
See it dance between us like a curse that we must bare
and stab its course through all the dawns that we may never share...
I'm giving up my ghost today
I wonder why it ends this way
Everything I give, you take
You're on your way
I don't wanna die alone
Kiss my lips, hold me close
Head to head we'll sink the boat
Let's try it tow to tow
I've been on my knees again
Wishing I could just begin
To try and let the ghost back in
To show we're more than bones and skin
You read my hand blind, I fold
I guess these are the seeds I've sown
It doesn't matter what you owe
You'll pay the toll
I've been on my knees again
Wishing I could just begin
To try and let the ghost back in
To show we're more than bones and skin
I've been searching far and wide
Looking for the truth you hide
I've been on my knees again
Wishing I could just begin
To try and let the ghost back in
To show we're more than bones and skin
I'm not irrational
I'm just no longer in the daydream
Of the delusion that
Once was held between us
Lately I'm in between
Being steady or a headcase
What's become of us now
Hanging our hearts in disgrace
What did I do
To make you so cruel
I've got this ache inside my heart
I know that it's you
What should I do now that
I know that we're doomed
I loved you most
Now you're a ghost
I walk right through
Oh remember when you said
That I was sick inside the head
I'm just halfway there
My common sense hanging by a thread
I'm bad on the outside
But a coward at heart
The taste of salt in my mouth
My voice is silent but my thoughts are loud
What did I do
To make you so cruel
I've got this ache inside my heart
I know that it's you
What should I do now that
I know that we're doomed
I loved you most
Now you're a ghost
You're a ghost
You chase the night
You're a ghost
You tickle tears out from my eyes
I'm the beast
I live of your freams
The days I breathe
Are killing me
I switch of the light
To turn ion the night
Missing you
It's you by bye my side bye, bye, bye
It's late so I fake, I awake
From a long distance call
Through my walls I hear ring
Ding... dong....
I want to be wanted in my time
I want to think time is on my side
I want to be standing in my shoes
I don’t want to be just like you
we are all ghosts here
I will never be just like you
where can we go to but away
we are going to a place that doesn’t exist
when sleep comes you do not want to return
keep and conceal and never reveal
there are ships out there tonight
to hide away is a lesson well learned
just keep walking, go walking down this track
going somewhere
some place called back
ghost
we are all ghosts here
I want to be wanted in my time
I want to believe time is on my side
I don’t want to be just like you
and you would hate to be like me
A healing gaze distracted,
a clown face blurred in water.
You ride your wave well
(you losing definition).
A healing gaze distracted,
a down stream smile running red.
ride your wave well
I smeared your face with my blood.
You swore you had tasted this before.
I'm spread so thin my colours bleed to one.
Now I don't stand.
Both feet bled, now I don't stand anymore.
I felt your ghost move within,
take shape and shift beneath the skin
and whisper:
"Black eyes are only a kiss away.
Take up the floorboards to get
closer to the bone and find
how the past will not
play dead anymore."
She reads aloud from letters that were
never thrown away
and paints my house with all the crimson
shades of recollection.
I smeared my face with your blood
and swore I liked the taste.
I brought you to the water's edge
and I held you under.
I'll keep a graveside vigil,
Help us God, we're stuck in here.
No hope only fear.
Help us God we're scared to death.
I'm not alive ind i'm not really dead.
I'm not gonna go before i'm released.
So what can i do, just sit here and wait.
Waiting for, waiting for.
Help us God, we're stuck in here.
No hope only fear.
Help us God, we're scared to death.
I'm gonna live this life till it's worht dying from.
I wont be afraid and i will not complaint.
The sea and the sun has got me on my knees.
I wont be a ghost no more.
Help us God, we're stuck in here.
No hope only fear.
Insecure and underrated
We are not hopeless, we are just broken
So come back from this nightmare you’re living
And I have seen it before, the reason why you walked out
And I’m led to believe that you’ve seen the worst in me
So save yourself
I’ve seen the lowest point of life
One day you’ll see my ghost
Everything that you have ever said
Makes me wonder was it worth it in the end
But they’re sealing the doors
Now I can’t come home, I can’t show them all
But they’re sealing the doors, I can’t show them all
Who we are meant to be
Let me love again
And I have seen it before, the reason why you walked out
And I’m led to believe that you’ve seen the worst of me
So save yourself
We’re all looking for love in the wrong places
Searching for the one who clearly isn’t there
When you lay in bed at night I hope you dream of me
You said you want it
You said you want it
Insecure and underrated
We are not hopeless, we are just broken
So come back from this nightmare you’re living
Let me love again
And I have seen it before, the reason why you walked out
And I’m led to believe that you’ve seen the worst of me
So save yourself
You said you wanted it all
You said you want it
VERSE
Were you restless
Do you ever sleep at all
I heard you pacin’ all night up and down the hall
You kept me tossin’ and turnin’
Prayin’ you’d lay down and go to sleep
Were you lonesome
I thought I heard you call my name
This nightly routine, is drivin’ me insane
You’ll never take the place of her
So why don’t you move on And rest in peace
CHORUS
Your just a ghost of a love that’s dead and gone
A cold shadow on these walls
A memory that keeps hangin’ around
To watch my teardrops fall
Everywhere I go, I’m never alone
With a ghost of a love that’s dead and gone
VERSE
I know that perfume
You leave to linger in the air
Take off her black dress
It wasn’t bought for you to wear
Your just a haunting reminder of the one who no longer lives for me
CHORUS
Your just a ghost of a love that’s dead and gone
A cold shadow on these walls
A memory that keeps hangin’ around
To watch my teardrops fall
Everywhere I go, I’m never alone
With a ghost of a love that’s dead and gone
How, everybody?
How about a body at moonlight
How about a body at home
How about a body at moonlight,
How our body's alone
I don't want to bother your moonlight
I don't want to bother your soul
I don't want to bother your moonlight
How our body's alone
Say, Cold
Cold,
Cold.
How about a body at moonlight
How about a body at home
How about a body at moonlight,
How our body's alone
I don't want to bother your moonlight
I don't want to bother your soul
I don't want to bother your moonlight
How our body's alone
Say, Cold
Cold,
Ghost.
Tonight.
Bathe in the light...
It's alright.
Say, Cold
Ghost...
Ghost...
I'm out of body at moonlight
I'm out of body at home
I'm out of body at moonlight
How our body's alone
I don't want to bother your moonlight
I don't want to bother your soul
I don't want to bother your moonlight,
How our body's alone
Tonight, tonight.
I’ve been heading out the club, starting like I wanna
Ass around the hood, I’m the man of California
Killing that lady, yeah, I’m ready for the summer
If you’re riding in the bucket pack that shit around
the corner.
Feeling myself, and yes, I’m off a pill
I don’t do moneyz, ‘cuz they seem to keep me still
Rather do pill, ‘cuz I know that’s for sure
I’m only walking ‘round this bitch, shake it, looking
for a cure.
Gotta take the money, take a change for the digits,
Treat her like hoes, hell yeah, imma flip it
Need a bad bitch that can blow me like a candle
While I’m watching TV in between, surfing channels.
Got a main bitch and I treat her like she’s mine
Got a side hoe that I hit from time to time
Got another hoe, hell no, she mind
But I beat her couple times, now she’s talking that
she’s mine.
Smoking OG, let me show you where to cue do
Staying on the roof, thinking nigger’s smoking meudels
Rave band zone when I step into the club
Got to see a damn thing, but I’m feeling like a duck.
Pants on deck, life barrel show,
Got the haters crying, love bet shout it.
Money to the bitch, hell yeah, I do the most
All these dead presidents got me rhyming in a ghost.
I’m rhyming in a ghost, I’m rhyming in a ghost(x3)
Down the b, dazzling, watch my nigger to a battle
Win pushes start while my shelve pop valet
Won for the hood, hell no, I ain’t counting.
All these careless say this green has got me looking
like a salad
Fuck it for the hoe, ‘cause it’s all a nigger life
Got her four cars, ‘cause it’s all the nigger lane
Shot her to the homes in the bare sonecas
Yeah, I say you’re rich enough, fuck yeah, I’m alright
Do it for the real niggers howling if you hear me
Do it for the haters, yeah, howling if you feel me
You are for rhyme, got me feeling like a martian
Yeah, I weep to beat it, have a nigger self pocket.
I’m rhyming in a ghost, I’m rhyming in a ghost
Money to the bitch, hell yeah, I do the most
All these dead presidents got me rhyming in a ghost.
Black crow perched on a wire
Calls out the names of the demons I've known
And his voice echoes onward
Deep through my heart, through skin and hard bone
I feel a ghost
Inside my lungs
Telling me to run
I want to feel young and hopeful
But no spark inside me will ever catch fire
When I die
I fear that I'll die alone
If I lose my grip on the people I've loved
To be a ghost
Oh to be alone
With no where left for me to go
I fall back to your arms
With every day with each long night that passes by
there was a girl who used to live here
sometimes you still can hear her laugh
see her planting in the garden
see her soaking in the bath
but you let her beauty go unnoticed
you let her music go unheard
you should have listened when she told you
you should have hung on every word
now i'm a ghost, i haunt this house
and wait for love to lift this shroud
take these withered dreams and let 'em go
i'm a ghost, i'm what remains
i walk these halls and curse these chains
and think about the things i loved the most
i'm a ghost
if i was looking for redemption
well i know it isn't here
and i won't hang around forever
so you can watch me disappear
so now i'm stuck here in this limbo
waiting for my soul's release
maybe a garden of my own somewhere
where i can find a little peace
it's much too late for blame
but would it have killed you to say my name?
To the sound of the monstrance clock
Here is cleansed assembled flock
Black candles burn all night tonight
To the sound of the monstrance clock
Here is cleansed assembled flock
Black candles burn on my shrine
As the parish sizes smoke
And just lead you revealed of
To the haunting sound of the monstrance clock
Singing:
Chorus:
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
To the sound of the end of day
Mesmerized the assemble sway
Black candles burn on my shrine
Hypnotizing lords of realm
Paralyzing á¹—entagram
And the eerie sound of the monstrance clock
Singing
Chorus:
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
Come together for Lucifer's son
Come together, together as a one
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the diseaser sees no cure
You know that the fog is here omnipresent
When the intents remain obscure
Forevermore
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable wall-less maze
A secular haze
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When she sees eye to eye with spears
You know that his son is near omnipotent
When youth and innocence disappear
Forever lost
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Unfathomable, wall-less maze
A secular haze
He is divinity omniscient
Seeing the world revolve with spite
The surge of humanity oblivious
To the divine bringingeth light
Let there be night
Weave us of mist
Fog weaver
Hide us in shadows
Fog weaver
Come mist eternal
Come mist eternal

Now I'm allowed
To make up my mouth
And lick the ground
But not until they make it clean I'm not becoming a dead dirty girl
Now I'm allowed
To shout up loud and stab his chest I can't do what you want me to I'm a free, free dead girl
‘Cause there is a sign behind the ghost I'm driving, I'm driving for her
I know there's a sign
When I feel that ghost
She's dreaming, she's dreaming for me ‘Cause I have a crush on this ghost Standing, standing by me
They say I'm not alive but I have a ghost She's holding, she's holding me
Now I'm allowed
I made up my mouth
And licked the ground
But not until they made it clean I'm not becoming a dead dirty girl
Now I'm allowed
They can't tell me why indignity is a crime I see a ghost and now I am Becoming a dead dirty girl
‘Cause there is a sign behind the ghost I'm driving, I'm driving for her
I know there's a sign
When I feel that ghost
She's dreaming, she's dreaming for me ‘Cause I have a crush on this ghost Standing, standing by me
They say I'm not alive but I have a ghost She's holding me
I'll be the one to let this roof cave in on me,
Buried in this house this wooden graveyard by the sea,
We push away our families to understand our needs,
The love and all the hate I used to hold in front of me
Restless nights all dizzy spells all sand between my sheets,
Showing signs of thirst like dried out boardwalk-blistered feet,
And now I know I never knew about you, only me,
We carried this inside like some disease we couldn't beat
But we could work, we try to live and get by,
To make our family in a second floor apartment,
Standing on a threshhold body out and flesh cold,
Go ahead and celebrate the things you lost
Try to grieve, to flex and release,
To cry and work out with the underrate apartment,
Moments are a lifetime,
Lockin' in a straight line,
This could take a little while to shake things off
Down by the waters edge,
Under a dying tree,
I let my body slip,
Something inside of me,
But when I came around,
Some kind of murky face,
I don't ever want to be alone like this
And I will tuck into you like I always wanted(?) to be,
Shadows just a shade of light not darkness in degree,
It was you who knew me first, this wasn't meant for kids like me,
Some brutal natural force we only feel, we never see
But as you grip the tide,
You blundered aside,
Your heads got smaller until they vanished into silence,
Sinking in a white foam,
Running to a new home,
We can only understand the things we see
You cease, desist
And view me like this,
The eyes wide open in the beauty of the bright lights,
Standing on a threshhold body out and flesh cold,
I don't ever want to be alone like this
I have no choice but to be vicious on my feet,
I never sleep, I never eat,
I am learning how to be lost completely
I want to be found, we crave the things we push away,
These patterns cut like every day,
I need to reach I need you to me
Down by the waters edge,
Under a dying tree,
I let my body slip,
Something inside of me,
But when i came around,
Some kind of murky face,
Shakin' my bones put me back in place
I don't ever want to be alone like this,
Haunted by the presence of things i miss,
I don't ever want to be alone like this,
Haunted by the presence of things i miss
Oh, I am becoming the ghost of myself,
Oh, I am becoming the ghost of myself,
Trapped little secrets, little things we never tell,
(Deseased! Deseased!) My dead lover
I'm alive, you're six feet under
(Deceased! Deceased!) You're in limbo
Partly assembled, losing all human shape!
(Don't fuck... Don't fuck with the dead don't!)
(Don't fuck... Don't fuck with the dead don't!)
Grudging course, grasping me
The lie of the failure, try'n pick a crie
(Ghost! Ghost! Ghost! Ghost!)
Mirror is warped, shaking sight
The life of the failure, try'n pick a crime
(Ghost! Ghost! Ghost! Ghost!)
Consciousness collapses eternally
Consciousness collapses eternally
Consciousness collapses eternally
(Zombie! Zombie!) Snake like head
I'm bait, game with the dead
(Zombie! Zombie!) You monster
Murder the living just to satisfy 'ya
(Don't fuck... Don't fuck with the dead don't!)
(Don't fuck... Don't fuck with the dead don't!)
Grudging course, grasping me
The lie of the failure, try'n pick a crie
(Ghost! Ghost! Ghost! Ghost!)
Mirror is warped, shaking sight
The life of the failure, try'n pick a crime
every day every moment I'm a ghost
every day every moment I'm a ghost
the world is on fire up in flames
and buildings are burning where children play
don't ask me a question I won't tell you all my lies
you want me to fool you while you look me in the eyes
every day I'm fading more into a ghost
barricades are closing off where I can go
closing in and pushing me far away
every day and every moment I'm a ghost
praying to alters praying for faith
a man with a gun has lost his way
there's ash in the air and it's cold outside
and I've lost all my places to hide
every day I'm fading more into a ghost
barricades are closing off where I can go
closing in and pushing me far away
every day and every moment I'm a ghost
every day I'm fading more into a ghost
barricades are closing off where I can go
closing in and pushing me far away
I feel the things I said
But never said how I felt
I know I waited much too long
Could I get it in your head
Without a hit below the belt
Looking back it seems that I
Went about it all wrong
Lying alone in the bed we made
Watching headlights on the shade
The ghost that's sleeping by your side
Are my promises to you that died
To you that died
Was it long ago
When forever was our friend
But now freedoms what I feel inside
It hurts so much to let you go
To know we'll never touch again
When I walk if I fall down
Can I take it in stride?
Lying alone in the bed we made
Watching headlights on the shade
The ghost that's sleeping by your side
Are my promises to you that died
To you that died
I might let you go but I'll never go away
I might let you go but I'll never go away, yeah
I feel the things I said
But never said how I felt
I know I waited much too long
Lying alone in the bed we made
Watching headlights on the shade
The ghost that's sleeping by your side
Are my promises that died
Lying alone in the bed we made
Watching headlights on the shade
The ghost that's sleeping by your side
Are my promises to you that died
To you that died
When I open my eyes my reflection dies killing the
GHOST ...
With nothing left inside too late for suicide I, I
don't exist ...
I'm a soulless ghost and I roam this empty shell and I,
I don't exist
when I open my eyes and I stare outside it makes me
sick and I shut back down
Not even sickness inside no memories survive and I am
the ghost
I'm a whisper from the dead
A ghost that never lived and I don't exist
When I open my eyes my reflection dies killing the
GHOST
When darkness shines in my eyes until I'm blind I, I
don't exist
No reflection remains in the end it's all the same and
I, I don't exist
when I open my eyes my reflection dies my sickness
subsides I'm less than alive
As I start to descend below the end of sin I am the
ghost
I'm a whisper from the dead
A ghost that never lived and I don't exist
When I open my eyes my reflection dies killing the
