Ghosts Songtext
von The Red Clay Strays

I can′t escape my past
No matter what I do
My penance bares no reprieve
And only sorrow insumes
Haunted by former self
I count up all my mistakes
Clenched fist gripping tighter
Ever consumed by shame

Shake off the ghosts of old
They only weigh you down
Redemption's a long road
Better start walking now


Folks tend to judge my name
Based on who I was
Those days are over now
I know who I′ve become

Shake off the ghosts of old
They only weigh you down
Redemption's a long road
Better start walking now

Still, every now and then
Those apparitions return
Creepin' round in my head
If nothing else I′ve learned

Shake off the ghosts of old
They only weigh you down
Redemption′s a long road
Better start walking now, eh
Better start walking now
Oh!
