Gave Up The Ghost

I used to think you were an angel
My biggest blessing, no disguise
But holding onto you was fatal
You became my poltergeist

Yeah, you could've brought me to my grave
Haunting me in endless waves
Til I faced the phantom in my way

I gave up the ghost of you
No demons left in my room
And it doesn't kill me bein' on my own
Since I gave up the ghost

Nothing para, it was normal
Didn't need to exorcise
The ritual was so informal
Simple as saying goodbye

No more candles, ouija boards
Seances are done for sure
No, I won't make contact anymore

I gave up the ghost of you
No demons left in my room
And it doesn't kill me bein' on my own
Since I gave up the ghost

I wouldn't say you're dead to me
But I'm done mourning what could be
This funeral is over finally

I guess I'll do the ghosting
Since I loved you the most and
If you're moving on, I don't wanna know

I gave up the ghost of you
No demons left in my room
And it doesn't kill me bein' on my own

Since I gave up the ghost of you (No, you're not dead to me)
No demons left in my room (You're just a ghost story)
And it doesn't kill me bein' on my own (My next life's calling me)
(I'm finally free)
Since I gave up the ghost
