Ghosts In the Dark

[Verse 1]

Dancing in the streetlight

With the rain upon my head

I drank another barrel dry

Now can you help me to my bed

[Pre-Chorus 1]

And come a little closer now

Come a little closer now

I need someone to show me how

I need someone to show me how

[Chorus 2]

'Cause I am a father caught in the fire

I'm so alone, a ghost in the dark

Yeah, I am a teacher, and I am a preacher

I'll still be the one that's torn from the start

I'm just a ghost in the dark

[Verse 2]

Sleeping at the bus stop

Another classic mess

I hope that someone wakes me up

Before I freeze to death

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Can anybody take me home

Could anybody take me home

'Cause I don't wanna sleep alone

I don't wanna be alone

[Chorus]

'Cause I am a father caught in the fire

I'm so alone, a ghost in the dark

And I am a teacher, and I am a preacher

I'll still be the one that's falling apart

And I am a doctor, and I am a lawyer

I'll still be the one that's torn from the start

And I am a soldier, and I'm getting older

Everyday I'm slouched at the bar

I'm just a ghost in the dark

I'm just a ghost in the dark

[Outro]

Dancing in the streetlight

With the rain upon my head
