You Were a Ghost Lyrics

You were a ghost

I was a burning home

You started fires I tried to light alone

You were a ghost

You were in flight

I was a blinding light

You didn't know me, but you were my writing nights

Yeah, we were alright

And though I tried so hard to find

Any tell and any sign

Your eyes don't bleed like mine

And I can't see at night

But if you had a giving day

It wouldn't be the same

No, I'd still find you haunting by my grave

You were a lie I always thought was true

And I wanted to die

For me, but not for you

So find me a fool

And I shone a light down every darkened corner of the house

To see you split like porcelain, to feel it shaking out

And I'm giving everything you need to find where you haunt most

But I'm no more than a burning home, and you were a ghost
