you're just a ghost

Wake up in my own world before I enter theirs
Drown out the voices, pay no mind to the noise downstairs
My sister calls out my name but she doesn't know where I'm hiding,
Inside my mind with nothing to declare

And I call out for you
But I hear no reply
I'll unplug the drain
But just let me say goodbye

To you
To me
To everything I'd hope you'd be

But why would you reply?
Are there any chords in that throat?
(Please say something)
Why would you reply?
After all, you're just a ghost

Ugh, it's too bad you're just a
Ghost
If only I had known
I wouldn't be sitting on my bed trying to make you come to life
If only I had known there was no heartbeat inside

You're just a ghost

I'm walking down the driveway in the middle of the night
Drown out the noises, I'm afraid to look behind me
And see all the bodies, but once we're in the light
They'll see all the damage and then just leave me there to die

(To die)

And I've poured out my soul in a glass for you to drink
I'll let you decide how I feel and how I think

How I speak
How I dream
Make me everything you'd hope I'd be

But would you reply?
Am I the one you think of most? (Am I not?)
Please say you'll reply, but goddamn it, you're a ghost

Ugh, you're nothing but a
Ghost
If only I had known
I wouldn't be sitting on my bed trying to make you come to life
If only I had known there was no heartbeat inside

You're just a ghost

You're pale, you're see-through
I don't see you, no
You're pale, you're see-through
Who am I kidding?
Yes, I see you

(ghost, ghost, ghost)

And the worst part is you're literally just a
Ghost
If only I had known
I wouldn't be sitting on my bed trying to make you come to life
If only I had known there was no heartbeat inside

No, you're just a

(You are just a ghost, okay?)
