I'm runnin' from the ghost
The ghost inside of me
Heavy on my mind
Still fight him in my sleep
I see him all the time
The Jekyll to my Hyde
Down each and every road
No matter where I go
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
Ghost, ghost
Ghost, ghost
Wake me up, set me free
Can't take back all the things I've seen
Darkest days, no beliefs
Feel the hope fall away from me and
Don't you pray for me
It’s too late for me
What can save me
It's night and day for me
Can't go back there
To cold hard memories
Just one way for me
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
The ghost inside of me
Heavy on my mind
Still fight him in my sleep
I see him all the time
The Jekyll to my Hyde
Down each and every road
No matter where I go
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
Keep runnin' from the ghost
I'll be runnin' from the ghost
Keep runnin' from the ghost, oh, yeah
Ghost
Wake me up, set me free
Can't take back all the things I've seen
Darkest days
No beliefs
Feel the hope fall away from me
Don’t you pray for me
It’s too late for me
What can save me
It’s night and day for me
Can’t go back there
To cold hard memories
Just one way for me
I’ll keep running from the ghost, from the ghost
I’ll keep running from the ghost, from the ghost
I’ll keep running from the ghost
