Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And then you said a little more about your dreams
Like that was my call (My call), if you would only listen
Bypassed everything and went straight for the neck
I started, we're started, up nightly
Dragged you out into those streets
Before you buckle at your knees
[Verse 2]
What's it feel like to be a ghost?
Louder now, right now
So what's it feel like to be a ghost?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Well are you up for, are you up for?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Well are you up for, are you up for?
[Verse 3]
This is quick but not quite painless
It sits perched on your arm
Tacky and irrelevant, so what
A permanent reminder that oh, christ
I started, we're started, up nightly
Dragged you out into those streets
Before you buckle at your knees
[Verse 4]
What's it feel like to be a ghost?
Louder now, right now
So what's it feel like to be a ghost?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Well are you up for, are you up for?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Are you up for, are you up for?
[Verse 5]
I said so look closely
There might be something you'd like
What was it like?
Looked so close it's been months
Who knows if I
Will get this right
Look so closely there might be something you'd like
What was it like?
[Verse 6]
So what's it feel like to be a ghost?
Louder now, right now
What's it feel like to be a ghost?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Well are you up for, are you up for?
Are you up for, are you up for this?
Are you up for, are you up for?
