Give Me The Ghost Back
I'm just an animal that strains against my line
I push and pull the cord, to make me feel alive
I had to fight to wrest the reins back on my life
Here come the stars again
Here come those scars again
How quickly we become the things that we despise
I talked her out of it, another lost the child
So many questions, stalking through me, day and night
Gimme the ghost back
Gimme the ghost back
What goes when I relinquish sin?
What's that beating in?
What goes when I face who I've been?
It's that old grief again
Woah-ahh
Terror is a long dark night
Half awake with the ones who died
The ones who tried
To say 'goodbye' to that cold white light
Face to face but we have to try
To face the night
Two hundred million feel they're underneath a knife
A million others, can't forget what we can't hide
Saw one friend overdose, another took his life
Gimme the ghost back
Gimme my ghost back
Terror is a long sharp knife
Regret and fear have an appetite
Appetite
So say goodbye to that old white knight
No fairytale ending for the night
Just death and life
Say goodbye to that cold white light
Goodbye
Say goodbye to that cold white light
Goodbye, to the ones who tried to face the night
Here come the stars again
Here come the stars again
I push and pull the cord, to make me feel alive
I had to fight to wrest the reins back on my life
Here come the stars again
Here come those scars again
How quickly we become the things that we despise
I talked her out of it, another lost the child
So many questions, stalking through me, day and night
Gimme the ghost back
Gimme the ghost back
What goes when I relinquish sin?
What's that beating in?
What goes when I face who I've been?
It's that old grief again
Woah-ahh
Terror is a long dark night
Half awake with the ones who died
The ones who tried
To say 'goodbye' to that cold white light
Face to face but we have to try
To face the night
Two hundred million feel they're underneath a knife
A million others, can't forget what we can't hide
Saw one friend overdose, another took his life
Gimme the ghost back
Gimme my ghost back
Terror is a long sharp knife
Regret and fear have an appetite
Appetite
So say goodbye to that old white knight
No fairytale ending for the night
Just death and life
Say goodbye to that cold white light
Goodbye
Say goodbye to that cold white light
Goodbye, to the ones who tried to face the night
Here come the stars again
Here come the stars again
