Grapefruit (Live From Asbury Park)

Hey, Holy Ghost
Why'd you leave me, where'd you go?
I know we ain't spoke in so long
But I've gotta know, if I'm alone

If I start drinking
I'm gonna be the town drunk
You always said I should lighten up
So I'm gonna lighten up, I'm gonna lighten up

So long I'm sorry
That I wasn't who you want
If I can't make you happy
I'm no good for anyone
So long I'm sorry
That I wasn't who you want
If I cant make you love me

I shut you out
After the funeral, mired in doubt
You thought a family would help
But I was struggling, you could tell

We got the news
You were pregnant, we painted a room
Pink and orange like a grapefruit
I know how bad you wanted this too
I know it killed you

In all my dreams
I'm in the house that I grew up in
I'm trying to be
Half the man I know my dad is
Or was, I see me as a father
Looking over a daughter
Who grew up to be just like you
And now, that's just a thread I can't hold onto
It's just an open wound

So long I'm sorry
That I wasn't who you want
If I can't make you happy
I'm no good for anyone
So long I'm sorry
That I wasn't who you want
If I can't make you love me

Hey, Holy Ghost
Why'd you leave me, where'd you go?
Right when I fucking need you
I'm all alone, I'm all alone

So, I'll start drinking
Yeah, I'll be the town drunk
I'll be a burden on everyone
On everyone, on everyone
