Garrett Smith - Ghost Lyrics

Lyrics Ghost - Garrett Smith



Well I'm not an alcoholic
But not for lack of trying
And I would not save a drowning man
Even if that man was dying
And I shouldn't have to say this
You know it's already true
But the words I see me make
Keep making mountains out of you
And the most precocious ghost he knows is
The one deep inside his soul
Because the most ferocious throws composure
So it's time to let it go
And I know
I am not the man you let into your home
I am not the law that's written on your stone
Anymore
I just wore on your bones
And I'm not some neo-savior
I don't need no holy writing
And the beast in me is all you see
When the saint just ain't caught fighting
And I do my best to keep him
Locked inside his cushioned cage
But his claws slip through the bars sometimes
Ripping words right off the page
Because the most exposing least disclosing
Is right here within your eye
I know the ghost has frozen those it goes in
So why can't I let it die?
And I swear
It was not because you thought I did not care
Anyone or anyhow or anywhere
When or why
I rely on a prayer
And I'm sure
I could be the one you've not been looking for
When you see my final shadow cross your door
Never home
Not alone
And I'm sure
I could be the one you've not been looking for
When you see my final shadow cross your door
Never home
Not alone anymore
COME ON
