Ghost
I thought I was safe from you
Checked twice under my bed
Weeks sleeping in my living room
To avoid waking the dead
Invested in a new nightlight
Just like when I was a kid
So when I see a shape around midnight,
It glows through where my brain thought you had been
And I've seen my shrink; she thinks I've lost it
How could I be haunted by the conscious
Smile through my teeth
Stopped bringing up my mirror's cracked
Pour salt around my house
Accept the ghost is back
I'm dreaming of the time we danced
In the middle of the road
When your car broke down in Michigan
And we didn't know or care how we'd get home
I'm staring at the ceiling now
It's almost 4 am
My muscles frozen to the ground
And I swear to God it's you that has me pinned
And I've seen my shrink; she thinks I've lost it
How could I be haunted by the conscious
Smile through my teeth
Stopped bringing up my mirror's cracked
Pour salt around my house like a goddamn maniac
And I'll still check under my bed
Knowing full well you'll be back
Checked twice under my bed
Weeks sleeping in my living room
To avoid waking the dead
Invested in a new nightlight
Just like when I was a kid
So when I see a shape around midnight,
It glows through where my brain thought you had been
And I've seen my shrink; she thinks I've lost it
How could I be haunted by the conscious
Smile through my teeth
Stopped bringing up my mirror's cracked
Pour salt around my house
Accept the ghost is back
I'm dreaming of the time we danced
In the middle of the road
When your car broke down in Michigan
And we didn't know or care how we'd get home
I'm staring at the ceiling now
It's almost 4 am
My muscles frozen to the ground
And I swear to God it's you that has me pinned
And I've seen my shrink; she thinks I've lost it
How could I be haunted by the conscious
Smile through my teeth
Stopped bringing up my mirror's cracked
Pour salt around my house like a goddamn maniac
And I'll still check under my bed
Knowing full well you'll be back
