Give up the Ghost - Last In Line

I’ve been down to the fires of hell

And came back with a story to tell

Talk of fire and division, war and indecision

Rotting inside this shell

Flash back to a time of greed

Habits you need to feed

When your climbing the ladder

Nothing else matters

If your finished or incomplete

But I’ve seen harder times

And simple minds

When I needed you the most

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

All those wicked lies by design

From the pillar, to the post

Give up the ghost of me

And move along

Just let it die

Jump up, jump back and get down

The circus is back in town

Fake it till you make it

I hate to break it to you the suns gone down

But you can’t run from the devil

Cause everybody loves a clown

All your shiny things and golden rings

Will hold you till you drown

But I’ve seen harder times

And simple minds

When I needed you the most

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

All those wicked lies by design

From the pillar, to the post

Give up the ghost of me

And move along

Just let it die

You wear that smile

Like a crown of thorns

And all that bitterness

Won’t keep you safe from the storm

I’ve seen harder times and simple minds

When I needed you the most

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

All those wicked lies by design

From the pillar to the post

Give up the ghost of me and move along

And keep on running

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost

Give up the ghost of me and move along

And keep on running

All those wicked lies by design

From the pillar to the post

Give up give up give up give up give up the ghost

Give up the ghost of me and move along and move along
