Lyrics

Ghost

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Let's go

Counting the stars inside my head

Til none are left except the dead

That pull me in with all that's left

Of everything I thought I had

And right when I thought I was done

You told me that you'd be the one

To wake me when I reached the sun

But then you didn't stay

You left me more cynical than you found me

So what now

You kept me from falling

Now you're leaving me behind

By why now

Right when I need you the most

Will you walk away without a word

Not dead or gone but not more than a ghost

Reaching behind me every night

Not for a blanket or a light

But someone, I know it's not right

To wish was right besides me

And futile as I know it is

To not just hope but pray for this

That just one day the rain will miss your head

And you'll remember what I did

And just tell me how I should've been different

So what now

You kept me from falling

Now you're leaving me behind?

By why now

Right when I need you the most

Will you walk away without a word

Not dead or gone but not more than a ghost

You'll never know how much it meant

To hear you say, let's write our names in the cement

You'll never know how much it hurt

To learn you can't trust what you've heard

If you can't see it, don't believe it

Don't believe it

Counting the stars inside my head

Til none are left except the dead

That pull me in with all that's left

Of everything I thought I had

Now none are left except the dead

Now none are left except the dead

Now none are left except the dead

And you're nothing but a

Nothing but a ghost
