lyrics

Your clothes are hiding all your misery
There’s pain out there far as the eye can see
God was nailed to a tree
I drank his blood It taste like me

The bombs are flying farther than the birds
I’m sitting here trying to think of the words
The clowns are leaving with their dignity
I’ve fallen victim to sincerity

There’s a ghost behind you and I think it’s me
There’s a ghost behind you and I think it’s me
There’s a ghost behind you
There’s a ghost behind you
There’s a ghost behind you

I write my story at the speed of sound
I tell the tales in every town
I was born outta context
Surrounded by men with their muscles flexed

There’s a ghost behind you and I think it’s me
There’s a ghost behind you and I think it’s me
There’s a ghost behind you
There’s a ghost behind you
There’s a ghost behind you

Don’t think
Just feel
Nothing can change
The way I feel
