Chasing Down a Ghost
Chasing down a ghost
Up and down the coast
In and out of hallways, it's always the same
We missed them by an inch
We're slightly off our mark
Stare into the void and listen for a voice
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
Hanging by a string
Waiting in the wings
The show is nearly over, I'm still here
Listening for my name
A call that never came
Now they're pulling up the lights and pushing me aside
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
Or it'll get you in your sleep
And every secret that you keep locked in your mind
Could come alive, hmmm
So I'm chasing down a ghost
But I never get too close
In and out of hallways, we're always at odds
With how we missed them by an inch
And we're slightly off our mark
Don't it seem a little strange how it never seems to change
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
No it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
Up and down the coast
In and out of hallways, it's always the same
We missed them by an inch
We're slightly off our mark
Stare into the void and listen for a voice
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
Hanging by a string
Waiting in the wings
The show is nearly over, I'm still here
Listening for my name
A call that never came
Now they're pulling up the lights and pushing me aside
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
Or it'll get you in your sleep
And every secret that you keep locked in your mind
Could come alive, hmmm
So I'm chasing down a ghost
But I never get too close
In and out of hallways, we're always at odds
With how we missed them by an inch
And we're slightly off our mark
Don't it seem a little strange how it never seems to change
'Cause all my life, I don't know honey how to let it go
How to learn to stand with what I am and what I cannot control
'Cause you can tighten up your rope, but you'd be chasing down a ghost
And it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
No it's not enough to kill you but it'll get you pretty close
