Ghost

Happy birthday honey Uh you've gone from a young lady to a mature woman here today If that means anything to ya I heard a laugh so deep and low It shook awake A lonely place I built inside but never go it's Walls are lined with the words you wrote But they're tumbling down I can't catch them now Another spring we'll never know Ghosts Why they always teach the most Never thought you would let me down like that You're in the ground no coming back Ghosts Show me everything you know I'm left trying to find the good but is it bad I'm so bad that you abandoned me so fast I never noticed a simple smell Could be a butterfly to catch a flashback in Dry me out and use your pin To frame me next to your unfinished painting So I'll be safe and never have to leave Ghosts Why they always teach the most Never thought you would let me down like that You're in the ground no coming back Ghosts Show me everything you know I'm left trying to find the good but is it bad I'm so bad that you abandoned me In the middle of a storm in December I kept blowing on a dying ember Happily I went numb Cause it meant we're frozen Writing letters in the ice on the mountain side Just to watch the day melt away the lines So I begun to kill the sun In hopes that you'd stay My ghost Why they always teach the most Never thought you would let me down like that You're in the ground come back Ghost Show me everything you know I'm left trying to find the good but is it bad I'm so mad that you abandoned me so fast
