Ghosts Lyrics by ​cannibal (UK)

Public Displays of Affliction

2023

[Intro]
Hey hey
You know
Hey hey
Oh

[Verse 1]
Dresses
Shorter than my temper
Pretty like my patience
Wearing thin
Temptress
Calling to a sailor
Lure me like a siren
When you sing

[Refrain]
Did you say yes?
‘Cause I heard it
I don’t do monstrous things on purpose
Promise from my forefathers I learned it
Think about it this way, baby
You earned it, you earned it

[Chorus]
Hey hey
You know
Keep your friends and your enemies close
Same bonеs lurking under those clothes
Hеy hey
Don’t go
We’re the ones who believed in you most
Your fault for believing in ghosts
Hey hey
You know
Hey hey
Don’t go
We’re the ones who believed in you most
Your fault for believing in ghosts

[Verse 2]
Hey
I’m calling about last night
I’m probably overthinking, but
I feel sick in the pit of my stomach
And it’s not just the drinking
Can you text me back when you get this?
You said ‘lose yourself’ and you meant it
Now I don’t know how the night ended
Or who I left with

[Refrain]
Did I say yes?
Did I mean it?
Even if I said no, I’m defeated
Even if I said so, who’d believe it?
Call me no fun to stop me leaving, leaving

[Verse 3]
Dresses
Shorter than my temper
Ending of my tether
Under her clothes
Temptress
Boiled in the pressure
Live with me forever
And all of your ghosts

Yeah
You know, oh

[Chorus]
Hey hey
Don’t go
We’re the ones who believed in you the most
Your fault for believing in ghosts
