Ghosts - Laura Welsh

Bones shake

It’s lonely, it’s late

Footsteps echo

Glimmers of hate

Howling candles

Are blowing us out

What can I tell you?

It’s all going down

And there’s a sadness

Deep down in my soul

Hard times

Just won’t let me go

And I need you to help me through

I can’t lay these ghosts to rest

And though I’m scared and it’s dark

Oh, I know it’s all a mess

They’re faceless, and headstrong

I got them staring back at me

But my will is still strong

I won’t let them take me in

I won’t let them take me in

Angels crying

Lost in shame

Demons laughing

Playing the game

The days roll on from dusk till dawn

For all time, all time

My faith is grown, the seeds we’ve sown

I’ll be alright, alright

And there’s a sadness

Deep down in my soul

And I need you to help me through

I can’t lay these ghosts to rest

And though I’m scared and it’s dark

Oh, I know it’s all a mess

They’re faceless, and headstrong

I got them staring back at me

But my will is still strong

I won’t let them take me in
