Like a Ghost Songtext
von ivycomb

I thought I could run away from here
It′s just a game, you've made that clear
The past is haunting, like a ghost
It′s manifesting through me

Oh-oh-oh
Hurt me like a ghost

Told me it was safe as you leaned in
Open my heart and you listened
Told you my every sin
Should've known that'd be your weapon

I let you pass the courtyard gate
Opened the lock, my first mistake
Showed you every crooked picture
Should′ve known you′d be my killer

Oh-oh-oh
Hurt me like a ghost


Ay, ay, ay
I've been invaded, degraded
From where I once began
Your spite can′t be sated, placated
I took the bait and you ran

I'm jaded, betrayed
′Cause I traded my fate to let you in
My trust turned to dust
Why's that making you grin?

Possessed like a poltergeist (ay)
I′m trapped inside your little lies (hey)
Move my words around and shifting blame
Make me ashamed (I'm just ya game)

Making me feel contrite
Flicker my light with spite
Having your fun with a smoking gun
And now I'm here grieving what we′ve both become (hey)

Levitate the ground, shake it all around
Destroy my foundation
Twisting what I say, then watch as I decay
Make guilt my one sensation


Fight or flight, cut the light
Time your strike
Break me down, shake my ground
Make me drown

Suffocate, feel the weight
Seal my fate
Final breath, silent death
Pay my debt

I thought I could run away from here
It′s just a game, you've made that clear
The past is haunting, like a ghost
It′s manifesting through me

Oh-oh-oh
Hurt me like a ghost

I thought I could run away from here (oh-oh-oh)
It's just a game, you′ve made that clear (hurt me like a ghost)
The past is haunting, like a ghost
It's manifesting through me

Oh-oh-oh
Hurt me like a ghost
