Exorcist

That ghost I stopped believing in
Flew right through my abdomen
It's been awhile
Since I brought back the dead
And I can't wash off the ectoplasm
No matter how much soap I lather
I'm still reckoning with where we left

So I called up an exorcist
He'd never seen a thing like this
I'm not catholic, just at my last resort
But I'm no stranger to a spirit
With unfinished business
I'm haunted 'til I settle the score

It was you who crossed the line
So why is it eating me alive
I only paint you as a victim cause I miss you
You couldn't hold your tongue
Spoiled the mystery and the fun

I miss the way it used to be
It will never be the way it used to be
Such a shame that that's the way you choose to be
It will never be the way it used to be
It will never

I was cornered in a dead end chase
Well you didn't see it that way
You lost your grip, spoiled the trick
And the lights turned on
Out of the blue you said goodbye
Like a stranger not a friend
Man, I thought I'd never see your face again

Eventually I traced your path
And found the gruesome aftermath
The riddle finally started making sense
It's a hard one to frame
We walked along a fragile line
And where do you place the blame
In such a broken design

It was you who crossed the line
So why is it eating me alive
I only paint you as a victim cause I miss you
You couldn't hold your tongue
Spoiled the mystery and the fun

I miss the way it used to be
It will never be the way it used to be
Such a shame that that's the way you choose to be
It will never be the way it used to be
It will never

No straight answers, only clues
What the hell was I to you
I still needed you around
You looked me in the eyes and burned my trust
To the god damn ground

I miss the way it used to be
It will never be the way it used to be
Such a shame that that's the way you choose to be
It will never be the way it used to be

I miss the way it used to be
I miss the way it used to be
I miss the way it used to be
