Old Ghosts // New Stories

I don't know what I'm running from That's a lie I tell myself every day I'm trying to outrun these old ghosts I prayed by now they'd fly away But these old ghosts tell new stories About why the rest wouldn't stay I thought that I'd escape by now I fear they'll haunt me all my days And now I wonder Is anybody out there Can anybody hear me Or are You just an old ghost too I've heard all the legends about what You used to do Maybe You skipped town No new stories to tell Is that why I'm dying for heaven But I'm living in hell I can't say your name They say you've got to name it to cast it out You were the first one that I told my mother about Dark night, with the fire dancing in the air You're like a phantom, now Were you ever really there And now I wonder Is anybody out there Can anybody hear me Or are You just an old ghost too I've heard all the legends about what You used to do Maybe You skipped town No new stories to tell Is that why I'm dying for heaven But I'm living in hell Now I'm starting to see Now I'm starting to see That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me That the ghost is me
