[Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Verse 1] My friends had you figured out Yeah they saw what's inside of you You tried hiding another you But your evil was coming through These eyes sitting on the wall They watch every move I make Bright light living in the shade Your cold heart makes my spirit shake [Pre-Chorus] I had to go through hell to prove I'm not insane Had to meet the devil just to know his name And that's when my love was burning Yeah it's still burning [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Verse 2] Each time that I think you go I turn around and you're creeping in And I let you under my skin Cause I love living innocent Oh, you never told me True love was gonna hurt True pain I don't deserve Truth is that I never learned [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake [Bridge] Give up the ghost, give up the ghost Give up the ghost, stop the haunting baby Give up the ghost, give up the ghost Give up the ghost, no more haunting baby I keep going to the river... [Chorus] I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake I keep going to the river to pray Cause I need something that can wash out the pain And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away But your ghost, the ghost of you It keeps me awake
