The Ghost

歌詞

I will change, I will change I swear, just tell me what to do Just tell me who to be And I'll be who you want me to Pretend I don't exist You won't know I'm in the room I'll be the ghost of something That used to mean something to you This beaten up heart Is lost and confused I wish that my younger self was here He'd know just what to do Boy could he talk Well he'd know just what to say Moving up is moving on from where you came Stop me if I'm boring you I'm painfully aware That you've got better ways to waste your time, time, time I will change, I will change I swear, just tell me what to do Just tell me who to be And I'll be who you want me to Pretend I don't exist You won't know I'm in the room I'll be the ghost of something That used to mean something to you Say this isn't real Say this was a joke Say there's still space for me in bed 'Cause I can't live alone Oh pitiful me, I'll do anything you say I'd soon as suffocate with you than stay away And I knew all this years ago But couldn't take the hint You match my overcompensation With your own ambivalence I will change, I will change I swear, just tell me what to do Just tell me who to be And I'll be who you want me to Pretend I don't exist You won't know I'm in the room I'll be the ghost of something That used to mean something to you When I got the call I was on the road Three weeks in Europe 'til I got home So what would make you stay I'll build a mountain I'll change my name I don't have to breathe if all my air gets in your way I will change, I will change I swear, just tell me what to do Just tell me who to be And I'll be who you want me to Pretend I don't exist You won't know I'm in the room I'll be the ghost of something That used to mean something to you That should've meant something to you
