Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Why don't we kill the lights?

I'm no good at hiding underneath a sea of tears

Flood pouring through my eyes

I can't even close 'em, I can't even see you clear

And when you're looking in the mirror

Demons may be closer than they may appear

You can even cry, and sit, and stare

When trying to run away, I'm tryna run away

I'm staring at a ghost

I'm staring at a ghost

Why don't we take a walk?

Everybody knows a hand to hold is all we need

Quiet, let's not even talk

Every word I say to you, you only just repeat

And when you're looking in the mirror

Demons may be closer than they may appear

You can even cry, and sit, and stare

When trying to run away, I'm tryna run away

I'm staring at a ghost

I'm staring at a ghost

Blood is on our hands

We never understand

Living just to die another day

Powder on our face carries us away

Reaching for a dream that always fades

Madness in a smile

Won't you stay a while?

I'm staring at a ghost

I'm staring at a ghost

(I'm staring at a ghost, I'm staring at a ghost)

I'm staring at a ghost

(I'm staring at a ghost, I'm staring at a ghost)
