Ghost Lyrics

In the morning when the sun breaks free
A reflection I know I've seen
In the night it's haunting me
A lonely ghost, a lonely gho-ost

Ever since I was just a child
I've seen visions in my sleep
Of a man running through the wild
With all these ghosts, a lonely gho-ost

But you can't breathe in if you don't breathe out

'Cause it's a new day, we're gonna go far
Knuckle down, trim, and shake off the dead weight
You know what they say
You can't hide from your ghosts

'Cause it's a new day, I wanna go far
Break it down, jump the gun, find a new way
You know what they say
I'm stuck here living with all these ghosts, a lonely gho-ost

Hey ey ey ey ey ey
Hey ey ey ey ey ey

I'm looking back at a room for two
The skeletons of all we knew
That we were only broke and bruised
As you held me close along the coast

When the morning settles in
And I've learned how to live within
I can't rewind all the things I did
And all these ghosts, the lonely gho-osts

But you can't breathe in if you don't breathe out

'Cause it's a new day, we're gonna go far
Knuckle down, trim, and shake off the dead weight
You know what they say
You can't hide from your ghosts

'Cause it's a new day, I wanna go far
Break it down, jump the gun, find a new way
You know what they say
I'm stuck here living with all these ghosts, a lonely gho-ost

Hey ey ey ey ey ey
Hey ey ey ey ey ey

Now we know we'll never be alone, alone
And we know I wanna be alone, alone

Hey ey ey ey ey ey
Hey ey ey ey ey ey

'Cause it's a new day, we're gonna go far
Knuckle down, trim, and shake off the dead weight
You know what they say
You can't hide from your ghosts

'Cause it's a new day, I wanna go far
Break it down, jump the gun, find a new way
You know what they say
I'm stuck here living with all these ghosts, a lonely gho-ost

Hey ey ey ey ey ey
Hey ey ey ey ey ey

A lonely ghost
