Kill The Ghost - Motherfolk

I feel like I’m trying to kill a ghost

But he keeps blocking every shot I throw

It’s always there when I need it most

And even when I don’t

It was gone so long I thought that it was dead

But it was always there in my head

I just don’t look in its direction

For fear I’ll see myself

Cause if I look too close, I start to lose focus

When one door closes, another one opens

And I pull myself together as best as I can

You probably think that I’m trying to kill myself

Cause I don’t give a damn about my health

But underneath it all, I’m scared as hell

Of what comes after this

And if you look too close, I start to unravel

The stitches that all meet together don’t matter

It all comes loose if you pull a single thread

And if you say too much, the words lose their weight

What I thought was profound was just marks on a page

And it all came loose when I pulled a single thread

All came loose when I pulled a single thread
