Brandon Jenkins - The Ghost lyrics

He thinks about his family The wife that he once had He thinks about his mom and then his dad He used to have a good life 'til he through it all away Now he's got to live with the choice he's made He's got to learn to live with the choice he's made He said he had a child once Heard him tell it was a boy You know, it was his pride and joy But then once Sunday evening, like an order sent from above The Lord, he took away the only one he loved The Lord, he took away the only one he loved The crashin' blow from the broken dreams The alcohol and the amphetamines took his mind away And now he's got to pay Damn the day that he bought the gun He left it out and now he's lost his son And the blame's been placed on him And now it's sink or swim You know the ghost still follows him Word cannot describe the depths of pain that he felt 'Cause in his heart of hearts, he blamed himself She couldn't look him in the eye when she said that they were through No matter what she said, she blamed him too No matter what she said, she blamed him too He drank so much until he couldn't stand up He wouldn't take a hand out or hand up His world was spiraling down His demons wouldn't drown The meth is more than he could handle Lord, it sent him off just like a roman candle burnin' at both ends Notify the next of kin You know the ghost still follows him You know the ghost still follows him
