Ghost Story Lyrics

You've been running up and down these halls
Don't you wear it down
You should know that we all know that you're still hanging around

Howling, moaning, clattering chains, making such a mess
Stop scaring all the pretty girls and being such a pest
You ought to know
You got to go
Don't pretend
It's not the end of the line

Don't tell me a ghost story
'Cause I'm so tired
Don't wanna be haunted
Wanna be inspired
Yeah, I wanna believe there's something more to look forward to

You keep showing up in all my dreams and playing all the parts
I keep opening all of the windows and hoping you'll depart

Every night is every night and sometimes so are the days
It's a shame that you're already dead 'cause I'm digging you a grave
You ought to know
You got to go
Don't pretend
It's not the end of the line...

Don't tell me a ghost story
'Cause I'm so tired
Don't wanna be haunted
Wanna be inspired
Yeah, I wanna believe there's something more to look forward to

And I'm not scared of you.
