Ghost Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember every part of you
You're the only one that was hard to lose
Now it hurts so much and I'm stuck in this hell
Can't stand up all by myself
I'm trying

[Pre-Chorus]
One more time I wish
You'd hold me in your arms
Help me to forgive
All that you've done wrong
Lost without your light
I can't see myself anymore

[Chorus]
You got me looking in the mirror for ghosts
I can't believe I let you so close
And now I
I want to but I can't let you go
'Cause you left me in this place on my own
You got me looking in the mirror for
You got me looking in the mirror for
Ghosts

[Verse 2]
Feed me all your lies and you call it truth
Took me in your arms and you told me you
You wanted it but you're letting me go
Can't believe that I gave you control
I'm tired
[Chorus]
You got me looking in the mirror for ghosts
I can't believe I let you so close
And now I
I want to but I can't let you go
'Cause you left me in this place on my own
You got me looking in the mirror for
You got me looking in the mirror for
Ghosts
You got me looking in the mirror for
Ghosts
I want to but I can't let you go
'Cause you left me in this place on my own
You got me looking in the mirror for
You got me looking in the mirror for

[Outro]

This song was written about letting someone get too close, even if you know they can hurt you. It’s about the feeling of being vulnerable to that person in a way that could basically destroy your life. It was also written in one of my first writing sessions so it feels special to release it.

Is there a live performance?
