Ghosts Lyrics by Staircase Spirits

Ghost Stories

2017

[Verse]
Gone tonight, I left a lot of ghosts behind me
In haunted houses full of secrets that they kept
I’m far enough away that they don’t scare me here
And I’m too far gone to feel regret

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, that town’s full of tombstones
And they’ve got stories to tell, whoa

[Chorus]
Cause I’ve been haunted so long
Ripped apart at the seams
Said goodbye to the girl I tried to be
So I’m standing now at this fork in the road
I think I know where it goes
I think I’ll follow it back home

[Verse]
The line is fine between the nightmare and the daydream
3 years I danced that line to someone else’s song
The record hasn’t stopped but I don’t hear it now
And it’s notes were always somehow wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, even ghosts need their bridges
But mine just light my way as they burn

[Chorus]
Cause I’ve been haunted so long
Ripped apart at the seams
Said goodbye to the girl I tried to be
So I’m standing now at this fork in the road
I think I know where it goes
I think I’ll follow it back home

[Bridge]
And someday this will haunt you
Cuz I’m the one you set free
Yeah, the whole world might want you
But the whole world’s not me

[Chorus]
I’ve been haunted so long
Ripped apart at the seams
Said goodbye to the girl I tried to be
So I’m standing now at this fork in the road
I think I know where it goes
I think I’ll follow it back home
