Ghost Reality

I live every day in a world where I did everything different

When you cried in the car and instead I really listened

All those times I felt love, and I'd just fucking admit it

Give you the whole of my heart, the same that you were giving

And when I moved overseas, and you said you'd wait for us

I really gave it a chance and not ran away from love

A world where I'm not scared every morning just waking up

Now I make it up

There's a place inside my mind I make believe

Where the story doesn't end in tragedy

And now the only way I feel you close to me

Is to hide inside a ghost reality

Picture the night we first met, but we never left that garden

I walked you home, 'stead of leaving, you outside my apartment

I wasn't selfish and just appreciated your patience

A world where I signed the deal without my ego inflating

I see a life, you in white, two kids, one picket fence

Not me alone in my room, punishing myself instead

'Cause I can't face the fact this is how the real story ends

So I just pretend

There's a place inside my mind I make believe

Where the story doesn't end in tragedy

And now the only way I feel you close to me

Is to hide inside a ghost reality

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
