Ghosts

There's a ghost in my bedroom, it haunts me at night

I've asked him to leave but he keeps stopping by

Just when I think that I'm alone

It shows up again with a friend this time

And now this is getting old

I don't know what to do (don't know what to do)

Metaphorically, this ghost is you

Now this ghost in my bedroom it gives me advice

He promised one day that he'd teach me to fight

Now when I think that I'm alone

He comes up my way with a devil's smile singing

"This is now my home, you're my wish come true"

"When you reach that golden cloud, I'll be there with you"

If there were monsters in the closet

Well, I don't think I would be surprised

I hear 'em call out from my window

They try and trick me to come outside

(I won't let you down)

We talked all day

I can't tell if he's real or a made-up version of her again

Never alone 'cause I've got you

Get this out of my head

♪

No I won't waste away my love onto something new

If there's only one way out, I'll come back for you

If I get stuck out there forever

Tell everyone that I said goodbye

You're on my lifelong list of wishes

And I could bring you back

But we don't belong here now

If he stays, well that just means I've got numbered days

'Til I go back to my little world

Where it's just me and my imaginary friends

♪

So go on, love, find a new direction

(Hold my heart, keep it for protection)

And don't get stuck on your way

The other side's a scary place

Do your best not to be afraid

Lose it all when we run away

Letting go of the little things you know I do

There's a ghost in my bedroom

And he's dying to meet you

God knows he's heard all about you

I guess he's friendly enough though

I'll see him more

Always sneaking roses in your bed

Says he won't let you down

He will, he will, he will

There's a ghost in my bedroom

He will, he will, he will

When the world is crashing down

When the world is crashing down

There's a ghost in my bedroom

He will, he will, he will

When the world is crashing down

When the world is crashing down

Softly, slowly, how can I go down?

I want you to notice when I let go

Softly, slowly how can I come down?

I want you to notice when I let go

There's a ghost in my bedroom
