Casper Lyrics by Elyse Shackleton

21 Days

2020

[Verse 1]
I feel like I can breathe for the first time in months
Like after all this time the heat has finally let up
And while I’m dealing with the aftermath
Of a love that left me way too fast
The rain calms my nerves and I’m at rest

[Chorus 1]
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost
After months of just floating through my day
Rain now pours and hits my form
Substance fills my veins
I find the missing pieces that I’ve always loved the most
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost

[Verse 2]
Today I saw some friends for the first time in years
A part of me showed up I didn't know was still here
Wе've grown and learned and fеll in love
And things have changed so much for us
But part of me mended that I didn't know was hurt

[Chorus 2]
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost
After months of just floating through my day
Rain now pours and hits my form
Substance fills my veins
I find the missing pieces that I’ve always loved the most
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost

[Bridge]
I've been taking a closer look at the questions I'm asking
Trying to acquire a little more self-compassion
I'm not sure when you'll get to see
But I'm the most me I've ever been
There's so much that's still in my head
But I'm deciding who to be
We once spoke, ghost-to-ghost
Wondered where we both would go
I'm hunting down my history
Searching for these parts of me
I've had a sense of who I was
But now I'm done with feeling empty
(Casper, Casper, Casper, Casper)

[Alt. Chorus]
‘Cause now I’m not just a friendly ghost
I find I can do more than float and smile
Rain now falls around these halls
A sound I recognize
I find I have the pieces that I always loved the most

[Chorus]
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost
After months of just floating through my day
Rain now pours and hits my form
Substance fills my veins
I find the missing pieces that I’ve always loved the most
And now I’m not just a friendly ghost
