Ghosts Lyrics

Tried to warn you

I didn't wanna let the world take me there

Pull me under

Love and hate

In despair

Unforgiven, underwritten

We walk the old paths, limping

The new ones snake-bitten

Fear for the future, face a sentence

I didn't rest

Had a bunch of night sweats

Kept my eyes open

Too many words were never spoken

And we listless

Erasing items off the wish list

And ain't done none of 'em

Didn't even take a run at 'em

Wondering how

Did we get caught in the crowd

In the hive

Lose our minds

Let others control our time

It's a heavy burden

Pitting this rural versus urban

When you're living in the neighboring subs

We tried to warn you

These ghosts can harm you

But if you're crazy like us

You can dance right through them

We tried to warn you

We tried to warn you

I didn't want to let the world take me there

Flip my meaning

Turn me off

Turn me on

Turn me in

Keep me sleeping

Some made they bed off cheating

Claiming they good people

But we got set back

With every kickback

That they receiving

I measured slack before I cut 'em off

Rigged up a new span

For others to come across

Wanted to catch people falling

Despite the heavy cost

Because a lot of folks lost

There is a rhythm to the system

In these manic conditions

Researching gain-of-function

Sacrificing our wisdom

We tried to warn you

That these ghosts can harm you

But if you're crazy like us

You can dance right through them

We tried to warn you

Yeah we tried to warn you

Yeah we tried to warn you

We tried to warn you

But no one's listening

But we tried to warn you
