Ghost

I should've let you die from that heart attack
Back in two thousand and five I wish that I didn't react
Embracing unknown contents of the coming days
Call it a faithful leap or playing it safe
I'm still tending to the bruises that you left on my soul
And the mental tax you charged I'm still in debt to that toll
In a dozen years the dust collects on untouched stepping stones
Will I ever shake it all

You were a ghost
Haunting my home
You were a ghost
Haunting my home
You were a ghost

Then in two thousand sixteen I received your written word
With a postmark from where you had been, a place I've never heard
And in negative degrees I recited your deceit
Spelled out for me

I was a ghost
Haunting my home
I was a ghost
Haunting my home
I was a ghost

Maybe better off alone
Mom and Meg and me, we're all getting along
You've been replaced by a better man who fills a space
You could never hold

Now you're a ghost
Haunting my home
Now you're a ghost
Haunting my home
Now you're a ghost
Haunting my home
Now you're a ghost

You are a ghost
You're haunting my home
You are a ghost
You're haunting my home
You are a ghost
You're haunting my home
