lyrics

i bet you ought to be my ghost
i bet you ought to be my ghost
i bet you ought to be my ghost
i bet you thought you'd be my ghost

tell me the truth
tell me if it's really real
if it's the end
then tell me how you want to feel
i'll keep on living and you keep away
i'll keep you from dying if you keep me awake
i don't ever want to have to close my eyes again
i never want to see you die inside again
and if one day we all must die
let me die alone. i promise that i'll be gone

no one ever taught me how to live my life
no one ever taught me how to slowly die
no one ever taught me how to fade away
no one ever taught me anything

i bet you thought you saw my ghost
come creeping in

if you're the break in my heart,
what is breaking my heart?

i bet you ought to be my ghost
