Ghosts – Laura Welsh

Bones shake
It’s lonely, it’s late
Footsteps echo
Glimmers of hate
Howling candles
Are blowing us out
What can I tell you?
It’s all going down

And there’s a sadness
Deep down in my soul
Hard times
Just won’t let me go
And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh, I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless, and headstrong
I got them staring back at me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in

I won’t let them take me in

Angels crying
Lost in shame
Demons laughing
Playing the game

And there’s a sadness
Deep down in my soul
Hard times
Just won’t let me go
And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh, I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless, and headstrong
I got them staring back at me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in

The days roll on from dusk till dawn
For all time, all time
My faith is grown, the seeds we’ve sown
I’ll be alright, alright

And there’s a sadness
Deep down in my soul
And I need you to help me through
I can’t lay these ghosts to rest
And though I’m scared and it’s dark
Oh, I know it’s all a mess
They’re faceless, and headstrong
I got them staring back at me
But my will is still strong
I won’t let them take me in
