Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She said, this is not about a poltergeist
Not about a phantom that glows at night
But there are things we don't know and I
Don't have another choice but an open mind, oh
[Verse 2]
And I know what they'll say
I'm tryna make sense of what no one can explain
But Ive been having dreams that, after I'm awake
Play out in reality the very next day
[Verse 3]
So I play along
I nod my head when they say I'm wrong
But each night falls and away I run
On the other side till the daylight comes
[Verse 4]
So I play along
I nod my head when they say I'm wrong
But each night falls and away I run
On the other side till the daylight comes
[Verse 5]
And when the lights go down
I see things I can't explain calling out my name
The lights go down, holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
Ghosts, ghosts, tonight is for our ghosts
[Verse 6]
This is not about you and me
I can't bring back how it used to be
And I know what I do believe
But I've already seen what I couldn't see, oh
[Verse 7]
So I play along
I nod my head when they say I'm wrong
But each night falls and away I run
On the other side till the daylight comes
[Verse 8]
And when the lights go down
I see things I can't explain calling out my name
The lights go down, holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
[Verse 9]
And when the lights go down
Is there something in the air, there but never there?
The lights go down, holding every memory close
Tonight is for our ghosts
[Verse 10]
Ghosts, ghosts, tonight is for our ghosts
Ghosts, ghosts, tonight is for our ghosts
