There’s a Ghost
Lauren Sloat
[Verse 1]
There’s a ghost she’s wearing my face
At parties, bein’ introduced with my name
Just a skeleton of bones
Wearing nothin’ but clothes
And she is paralyzing
[Verse 2]
The human soul is a treacherous place
Beneath the mask, we wear a dark and twisted labyrinth lace
Secrets often closed its close
Never surface while we keep composed
Come out of hiding
[Verse 3]
There’s a sound, its haunting my dreams
Like children laughing in the distance
And I don’t know what it means
Am I afraid to be alone?
That nobody will ever know
This death I’m dying?
[Verse 4]
There’s a heartbeat under my floor boards
Charging me guilty and I don’t know what for
There’s a black bird over my door
Singing ‘Nevermore, Nevermore, Nevermore, Nevermore’
