Intro

Verse 1

I would ask you how you've been

It's

all over the internet

But,

hey, I mean you knew that after all

If you're

looking for an autopsy

Or a

half-assed half apology

Then I

think you picked the wrong time to make this call

Verse 2

It is not irrelevant

That you

stopped taking your medicine

But I'm

giving you the benefit 'cause it's raining now

I'll

tell you how the weather is

And you'l

l slip into some eloquently

ramblin' mixed messaging, I should shut you down

Refrain

But it's

cold, and it's cold

And it's cold

And it's cold

And it's

cold

And I don't

know, I'm alone

I'm alone

I'm alone

I'm

alone

Verse 3

I hope you

tell me that you're winding down

That you've

lost the taste to face the crowd

That what

ever made you famous made you sick

That you can

only do what pain allows

It ain't

up to you to make it out

And there

ain't no shame in callin' this thing quits

Refrain

But you

don't, and you don't

What you don't

And you don't

And you

don't

You're a ghost

You're a ghost

You're a ghost

You're a ghost and you're

Chorus

Poison

spreading

to my

lungs

I ain't

holding

breath

I ain't holding

any faith at

all

And

I'll pray for you

Be in pain for you

I'll

leave the porch light

on

Heartbroken,

Each morning when it's

me that turns it

off

[Post-Chorus]

So it goes

So it goes

So it goes

Instrumental Break

Verse 4

You

act like we just sit up here

And

wait for you to reappear

But

baby, there are bills to pay and

Your dad's road needs salt

And I

try to drown out all the talk

The

eyeballs in the parking lot

Tell

people it ain't me you want

But I guess you're my fault

Refrain

You're a

ghost

You're a ghost

You're a ghost

You're a ghost

You're a gho

choke

And I choke

And I choke

And I choke on the
