Lyrics Kate Miller–Heidke – Ghost

KATE

I don’t know what to say to you
If I should say anything at all
Maybe it’s just safer in the silence

Yeah, he’s the tenderest of lovers
Yeah, he says the right things, I am sure
Yeah, I suppose you think you love him
Yeah, I suppose he says he’s yours

Oh trouble

Love is a weed that thrives on darkness
Love can be such a lonely game
But don’t say we have anything in common
I don’t want to know your name

You’re just a ghost in my home
Rattling my bones
Ghost in my home
God I wish you’d go
Hanging by a thread
Your soul, as empty as my bed

MEGAN

I don’t know what you want from me
Do you really want to hear it how it is?
Huh, you should see the way he looks at me
He says he’s never felt remotely like this

Yeah, every night I know he went to you
Yeah, but did he stare into your eyes?
Yeah, every night he lay beside you, he lied
Cause he was still with me inside

Ghost with a pulse, be gone

BOTH

Don’t look at me with sympathy
I am in control of me
Don’t be human please try not to feel
Shut my eyes so I can’t see
You’re the one who’s feeling cheap
You are just a ghost, and I am real

Now I’ll leave you to imagine me
Time to shut the blinds and lock the door
I hope that you can get to sleep

You’ve never heard my voice before
