Ghosts

[Verse 1]
I remember turning ten that Sunday
They found me on the side of the road
He couldn't leave me, no, he could not love me
Mom was spinning out of control
I remember feeling so confused
The silence hurt me more than the screams
I can't believe so much time has passed
These ghosts they got a hold on me

[Pre-Chorus]
It messed me up
I can feel 'em deep inside these walls
I can hear 'em
Calling, begging
Pulling me back to where I don't belong

[Chorus]
I'm done living in the past just waiting
For these ghosts to fade
I'm done living in the past just waiting
For these ghosts to fade
I know we are the same
I know I can't escape
Going up against these walls
I'm done being afraid
Waiting for the walls to fall

[Verse 2]
He used to say that we were all born crazy
The anger just came with our blood
I used to think that somehow I was different
Was fourteen when I ran out of luck
There were times when I could dream and laugh
But hope was few and far in between
I can't believe that after all these years
These ghosts still got a hold on me

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, it messed me up
I can feel 'em deep inside these walls
I can hear 'em
Calling, begging
Pulling me back to where I don't belong

[Chorus]
I'm done living in the past just waiting
For these ghosts to fade
I'm done living in the past just waiting
For these ghosts to fade
I know we are the same
I know I can't escape
Going up against these walls
I'm done being afraid
Waiting for the walls to fall
