Ghosts Lyrics

You drove yourself crazy

And with a matchbook in hand

You drove through the city

And then haunted the land

With fire in your eyes

You manifest those sparks in the weeds

To light up all you believed in

And make the smoke signal sky

There are

Ghosts creepin’ in through every crack

Of your head, creepin out through your mouth and hands

Ghosts roaming they take the shape

Of beliefs and invaded us apes

Who’ll convince ourselves, of anything just to justify

Why we do what we do, and why we hate what the others do

You walk with a strange gate

And talk with a blaze

As the people all question

All your haunted ways

We tried to pull you away

From the rip tide and those death waves

We tried to resuscitate

You stay in wake, we wane

There are

Ghosts creepin’ in through every crack

Of your head, creepin out through your mouth and hands

Ghosts roaming they take the shape

Of beliefs and invaded us apes

Who’ll convince ourselves, of anything just to justify

Why we do what we do, and why we hate what the others do
