Fighting a Ghost

Going out to get you, I'm going to make you pay!
But this spiritual conflict always seems to stand in the way!
I don't know who else to blame, the blood still runs from my veins.

Running away, I'm running from love, running from all the things you taught me!
Losing sleep, I cannot keep convictions that are always controlling me.

I understand that you never meant to bring me pain.
But it was you who left me in the pouring rain.
A phony love, that you built up just to have your way.
Just one day you turned from lover into runaway.

Now I am stuck with your ghost.  Why must you keep me so close.
I'm fighting with a ghost!  I'm tired of dragging your bones!
I'm dining with your ghost.  Must you always consume the most!
I only want to let go.  The only way that I know!

Always been a part of me that never moved forward from that day.
Afraid of love knowing that suddenly it all gets torn away!

You were in complete control of how it all would play.
Never thinking about a life you would forever change.
A phony love, that you built up just to have your way.
Just one day you turned from lover into runaway.

I'm fighting with your ghost.  Why must you keep me so close.
I'm fighting with a ghost!  I'm tired of dragging your bones!
I'm dining with your ghost.  Must you always consume the most!
I only want to  let go.  These words they reach you so cold!

I'm fighting with your ghost.  Why must you keep me so close.
I'm fighting with a ghost!  I'm tired of dragging your bones!
I'm dining with your ghost.  Must you always consume the most!

Going out to get you, I'm going to make you pay!
I only want to let go.  The past remains here so cold!
Going out to get you, I'm going to make you pay!
I only want to let go.  These words they reach you so cold!
Going out to get you, I'm going to make you pay!
I only want to let go.  The past remains here so cold!
Going out to get you, I'm going to make you pay!
I only want to let go.  These words they reach you so cold!
