Johanna Warren - Hungry Ghost Lyrics

Hungry Ghost

Go back inside,
there’s nothing here to see.
Don’t try to describe
me to me,

‘Cause if you can think it,
I’ve already said it
in a meaner way.
And anyway, the thing is
I try to forget it,
but it’s here to stay.

And I’m sick of everybody leaving me for dead—
all I hear is people grieving,
even in my head.
They say that what you give is what you get;
I gave you everything, and all I got
is a lot of regret.

Come back inside,
it’s getting cold out here.
I want to survive
another thousand years.
And this is the reason
I can never tell you
what I mean to say:
the sounds I’m making,
you’ve already heard ‘em
in a cleaner way.

But I’m sick of everybody leaving me for dead—
all I hear is people grieving,
even in my head.
They say that what you give is what you get;
I gave you everything, and all I got
is a lot of regret
