Ghosts

You're pushing, you're dodging, you're hiding, you're lying
From your past you can't deny
Seconds tick-tocking and angels are falling
Folding up scars you can't rewrite

And I got her hands, and I got her hair
The way she dances like there's nobody there
The way my shirt fits my figure like hers
Close your eyes and wish away the hurt

If you see someone you used to know
Every time I step a little closer
Even though you're now a little bit older
Yeah, you're running, still running from your ghosts

You touch me; you look in my eyes, but you see her
You feel her veins
And we were supposed to just grow up, love without
Playing mind games

And I got her hands, and I got her hair
The way she dances like there's nobody there
The way your shirt fits my figure like hers
I close my eyes and wish away the hurt

If you see someone you used to know
Every time I step a little closer
Even though you're now a little bit older
Yeah, you're running, still running from your ghosts
If you see someone you used to know
Why do you let me come closer?
'Cause now you're just waiting for closure
Yeah, you're running, you're still running from your ghosts

(I'm not someone you used to know)
(I'm not someone you used to know)

And insecurities light up like candles you blow out
Seconds tick-tocking and angels are falling
We were supposed to just grow up, love without
Playing mind games

If you see someone you used to know
Every time I step a little closer
'Cause now I'm a little bit older
Yeah, you're running, stop running from your ghosts

If you see someone you used to know
Why do you let me come closer?
'Cause now you're just waiting for closure
Yeah, you're running, stop running from your ghosts
If you see someone you used to know
Why do you let me come closer?
'Cause now you're just waiting for closure
Yeah, you're running, stop running from your ghosts

I'm not someone you used to know
Stop running from your ghosts
Stop running from your ghosts
'Cause now I'm running from my ghosts
