Ghost in the Room

I have been but a shot darkening the brigade
A wealthy breeding coward who chose only to blame me
I was toiling toward the darkness of faith
I am weaker to the one on the throne of my fate
I only do this because I have to
I can't believe I've let myself feel this bad
I only scream because I need to
I only sing so I can stop to

So where do I fit myself in your little scene
Where dreams of stardom mean nothing to me?
You only find charisma in people who scream
Look inside yourself, how shallow do you dream?

I have lived in silence
I have suffered pain
Have you listened to me?
Are you ashamed?

I have lived in shadows far too long
I would suffer with the weak, worthy, the wrong
Tell me where to go, what to do, one more time
I cast your truth against the source of where I find mine

I won't even think about it
That you and I are alone again
You don't even know about me
I'm just a ghost in the rain to you
And I will fade away
I'm just a ghost in the room

I'll purge the wicked
I'll run away knowing full well my life may not stay for long
And hope that you follow me out
Please follow me out
Won't you please follow me out?
There's gotta be something to motivate all of you
There's too much going on for my voice to break through the noise
Break through the noise
Break through the noise
Oh God, break through this noise

I won't even think about it
That you and I are alone again
You don't even know about me
I'm just a ghost in the rain to you
And I will fade away
I'm just a ghost in the room

There's no believing in everything
That doesn't mean that I'm the one that needs to explain
The empty halls of liberty and capital gain
Only makes me believe there's a bigger game to be played

I won't even think about it
That you and I are alone again
You don't even know about me
I'm just a ghost in the rain to you
And I will fade away
I'm just a ghost in the room
