Ghost - Lyrics
I tried it once before but I didn't get too far
I felt a lot of pain but it didn't stop my heart
And all I really wanted was someone to give a little fuck
But I waited there forever and nobody even looked up
I tried it once before and I think I might have messed up
I struggled with the veins and I guess I didn't bleed enough
But maybe I'm alive 'cause I didn't really wanna die (wanna die)
But nothing very special ever happens in my life
Take the blade away from me
I am a freak
I am afraid
That all the blood escaping me
Won't end the pain
And I'll be haunting
All the lives that cared for me
I died to be the white ghost
Of the man that I was meant to be
I tried it like before and this time I made a deep cut
I thought about my friends and the way I didn't give enough
And I should have told my mother, "Mum I love you like a good son."
But this life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one
Take the blade away from me
I am a freak
I am afraid
That all the blood escaping me
Won't end the pain
And I'll be haunting
All the lives that cared for me
I died to be the white ghost
Of the man that I was meant to be, yeah
I tried it once again and I think I might black out
I should have left a letter but I had nothing to write about
My blood is all around me I get dizzy if I stand up
The cutting part is easy but regretting it is so fucked
Yeah
I am a freak
I am afraid
That all the blood escaping me
Won't end the pain
And I'll be haunting
All the lives that cared for me
I died to be the white ghost
Of the man that I was meant to be
(I tried it once again and I think I went too far)
The man that I was meant to be
(I cut a little deeper and the pressure stopped my heart
The man that I was meant to be
(I couldn't tell my mother that I loved her I'm a bad son)
This life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one
