GHOST - Luke Christopher

How short this life is

Let’s put that in writing

And make it out to heaven, man, I’m sure that we could fight this

You think it’s overkill, I’m over-watering a ficus

But you all think you fly, that’s why you flock to where the light is

If you ain’t walked the moon, then boy, you better be your Highness

If you ain’t solid ground, then boy, you better be a lioness

And I’m just tryin' to live forever, what’s the harm in tryin'?

Just make your story last that when you die, you really dyin'

Am I poor?

Life is at the door with the eviction

I don’t wanna be another victim

Is there anyone, is there anyone out there?

Yeah

I’m livin' in the wake of my addictions

Well, maybe I’m just lookin' for permission

Doesn’t anyone, doesn’t anyone care?

Yeah, yeah, u-uh

Tell me 'bout your moments

Tell me how you chose 'em

The day involves some pills and the day involves some posin'

And tell me in my will, will it mentions that I’m awesome

And tell me were my thrills just as killer as my coffin?

I got diamonds, am I meant to?

(Diamonds, am I meant to?)

But I can’t write a story with a diamond, where’s my pencil?

And I be stretching, but this body’s just a rental

Just like they be hauntin' me, I’ll be hauntin' them too

Life is at the door with the eviction

I don’t wanna be another victim

Is there anyone, is there anyone out there?

Yeah

I’m livin' in the wake of my addictions

Well, maybe I’m just lookin' for permission

Doesn’t anyone, doesn’t anyone care?
