Mayday Parade Ghosts
There's a ghost in my bedroom, it haunts me And I,
I've asked him to leave, but he keeps stopping by
And just when I think I'm alone,
It shows up again with a friend this time
And now this is getting old, I don't know what to do
Metaphorically, this ghost is you.
Now this ghost in my bedroom, it gives me advice
He promised one day he'd teach me to fly
Now when I think that I'm alone,
He comes up my way with a devil smile, singing
“This is now my home, you're my wish come true.
When you reach that floating cloud, I'll be there with you.â€
If there are monsters in the closet,
well I don't think I will be surprised
I hear them crawl out from my window, they try to trick me to come outside
(I won't let you down) When he talked all day,
I can't tell if he's real or a made up version of her again
Never alone, 'cause I got you. Get this out of my head.
No I won't waste away my life, onto something new.
If there's only one way out, I'll come back for you.
If I get stuck out there forever, tell everyone that I said good-bye.
And that my life-long list of wishes, that I could bring you back,
We don't belong here now
If he stays, well that just means I've got numbered days
Till I go back to my little world,
Where it's just me and my imaginary friends.
So go on love, find a new direction
Save my heart, keep it for protection
Don't get stuck on your way,
the other side's a scary place.
Do your best not to be afraid,
Lose it all when we run away
Let it go, all the little things you know I do.
There's a ghost in my bedroom, and he's dying to meet you
God knows he's heard all about you
Our guest is friendly enough though
(There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa)
Always sneaking roses in your bed,
He says he won't let you down,
But he will, he will, he will.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa)
(He will, he will, he will)
We're the one's crashing down, we're the one's crashing down.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa)
(He will, he will, he will)
We're the one's crashing down, we're the one's crashing down.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa)
Softly, slowly , how can I come down?
I want you to notice when I let go
(There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa)
Softly, slowly , how can I come down?
I want you to notice when I let go
There's a ghost in my bedroom, aaahhaaa..
