Holly Henry - The Ghost lyrics

I was a ghost Sleeping in the walls Hiding behind bedposts Lost in vapid halls Cold and pale Trying to keep sane Learning to prevail Against my own brain I never fully appeared 'Cause all the kids thought I was weird So I polished off the clocks And set them all to chime Waited at the docks While they sang at the same time So I made all of the beds And dusted all the chairs I got it in my head Maybe someone would care But I never fully appeared 'Cause all the kids thought I was weird No I never fully appeared 'Cause all the kids thought I was weird Held my breath in corners Trying to be brave Watching while they mourned her A girl that could be saved Kissing all her pictures Wishing she'd survived Reading lines from scripture Like they did when she was alive And I never shed a tear 'Cause d**h was all I had feared No I never fully appeared 'Cause all the kids thought I was weird
