Talking To A Ghost

It's been a while, how have you been

I'll try to fill you in on what you missed

Your sister's finally having her first kid

And the band broke up, we never made it

And yeah, your mom's still smoking cigarettes

I'm finally sober now, can you believe it

I wish I could've given you the same gift

That it wasn't wasted, that it wasn't hopeless

But I'm just glad that you picked up

I don't know why I'm here and you're not

Screaming at the stars, why you're gone

I guess I'll never know

It's like I'm here talking to a ghost

But I know you're close, you're right there

The nights I need you most

The nights I need you most

I know what it's like to be an addict

Another fucking relapse and I've had it

They're all counting days, I'm counting seconds

But a little bit of faith kept me betting

That anything is better than that moment

When I finally hit the bottom, I was broken

If you could see me now, you'd be so proud

Cause I'm doing this for you, not only me now

I don't know why I'm here and you're not

Screaming at the stars, why you're gone

I guess I'll never know

It's like I'm here talking to a ghost

But I know you're close, you're right there

The nights I need you most

The nights I need you most

The nights I need you most

Am I talking to a ghost

Am I talking to a ghost

Seven years ago, I let a part of me die

And it's the same part of you that took your life

Why did you take your life

I don't know why I'm here and you're not

Screaming at the stars, why you're gone

I guess I'll never know

It's like I'm here talking to a ghost

But I know you're close, you're right there

The nights I need you most

I don't know why I'm here and you're not

Screaming at the stars, why you're gone

I guess I'll never know

It's like I'm here talking to a ghost

But I know you're close, you're right there

The nights I need you most

The nights I need you most

Am I talking to a ghost
