Another Song About Ghosts

A ghost woke me up in the middle of the night And he tried to open up my eyes, but I didn't feel alright I told it to go away, for it was a ghost I didn't know And it felt pretty sad, and it left me there alone I saw my brother in a dream, and we jumped over a fence We were somewhere new, but I guess it was pretend And I didn't want to leave but knew that soon I would have to So we left, took a walk, and I said, "I'll be back soon" I see ghosts every day, but not like the one in my room And I still do not know if he wants good or doom Sometimes he asks for smiles and sometimes for a gloom But my friends don't care, and I guess I don't, too And I'm tired of looking out and being alone I just want a pretty girl to kiss me on my nose And I'm used to seeing people when I close my eyes 'Cause I'm used to seeing colors shift and shape themselves at night I treat my body like shit, but I have nothing to lose Except my physical form, which I barely use I'd rather be a ghost sometimes in space with my best friend Who I lost years ago to booze and other trends Just hold yourself up directly in the light That's all that really matters if you want your life right Just try to do good in any way that you can 'Cause life's a big joke our hearts'll never understand
