“Ghosts in My Attic”
Verse
I’ve got Ghosts in My Attic and silver on my tongue
Fighting so many battles but no wars are being won
Time to lay down my weapons causing all this destruction
If there’s a hall of fame for assholes, you’d be my number one induction
Chorus
But still, you were the first one (da da da da)
To really get who I am
And love me like I was, your only woman
Verse
I’ve got Ghosts in My Attic, a golden noose around my neck
Your memories melting like hickory, oozing pain I can never forget
You tried to cast our future before we ever took shape
You thought by playing God for a night that you’d crawl safely away
Chorus
But still, your plan didn’t go as you wanted
You might think you’re living alone
But you have never been more haunted by me
Bridge
Or our savory embrace
Trickled memories of us rolling softly down your face
Maybe all the pictures have been burned
But your inner fire for me rages inside the urn of your lonely little life
You thought it was for the best when you gave up this fight for us
But I trust in the higher plan
I’ve never been more free in my life
I’ve never been more free in my life
Verse
I’ve had Ghosts in My Attic, the blood is off my tongue
I’ve spoken my truth in this song and now it’s time to lay down my weapons (da da da da)
The Ghosts in My Attic are resting weary heads
You have long since vanished and now I’m only thinking of him
Maybe one day soon, he’s gonna fill my space so sweet
Until that moment lapses it’s finally time for me to catch some sleep
(da da da da)
