Ghosts

This house Is haunted
Pretend that you don't know
Make believe that your
Only friends are the ghosts
Keep acting like you're
Just like them until
You're wishing you were dead
Mistake the creaks in the walls
For their voices in your head
And take us down with you
Hand in hand
Silhouettes of your family
When things don't
Go as planned

Hold a seat at your séance
So I can finally talk to you
Guide my hands to the letters
Prove you're the person
I once knew
No flowers on your grave
But forgiveness has thorns
Keep pushing us away
Until there's nothing left to mourn

And when they were buried
There was a piece of you inside
You hear her voice crying
Almost every single night
This poltergeist
She brought onto us
Beats the heart of our family
Black and blue
In booze and rust

Hold a seat at your séance
So I can finally talk to you
Guide my hands to the letters
Prove you're the person
I once knew
No flowers on your grave
But forgiveness has thorns
Kept pushing us away
Now there's nothing left to mourn

I saw your shadow
In the moonlight
The dark spilled across the floor
A mess I could never clean up
Passed out
What's worth dying for

Is that your shadow
In the moonlight
Or the shell you leave behind
When you decide this world's
Not right for you
Decide to run and hide

I think it's your shadow
In the moonlight
I wish I could stop you
If I tried
You had to know
That we were there for you
Now please come back inside

Your hands pass through mine
If it's all the same
Not sure which one's the ghost
Or which one's to blame

Your hands pass through mine
If it's all the same
Not sure which one's the ghost
Or which one's to blame
Your hands pass through mine
If it's all the same
Not sure which one's the ghost
Or which one's to blame
