about

"Ghost," is a heartfelt ballad in the great tradition of classic Americana, much like Paul Simon's "The Boxer," building from a single voice and guitar to a towering final chorus with four-part vocal harmonies and pounding drums.

lyrics

I have been the liar. I have been the one to blame.
I held your desires and I laid them all to waste.
You were no angel, but you still believed in faith.
I was just a demon, burned you up in the flames.

And now, my ghost is you. My ghost is you. My ghost is you.

You still spoke of returning to grace, but I had fallen for far too long.
If i had only broken your embrace, before this all went so wrong.
But you believed in something bigger and I couldn't control my rage.
I wish you'd just pulled the trigger. It should be I laying there in the grave.

And now, my ghost is you. My ghost is you. My ghost is you.
My ghost is you. My ghost is you. My ghost is you.
My ghost is you. My ghost is you. My ghost is you.
My ghost is you. My ghost is you. My ghost is you.

So, what am I? What am I? What am I? What am I? So, what am I?
