A Ghost In This House lyrics

I don`t pick up the mail
I don`t pick up the phone
I don`t answer the door
I`d just as soon be alone
I don`t keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don`t live in these rooms
I just rattle around

I`m just a ghost in this house
I`m just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse I haunt these halls
I`m just a whisper of smoke
I`m all that`s left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I`m just a ghost in this house

I don`t care if it rains
I don`t care if it`s clear
I don`t mind staying in
There`s another ghost here
He sits down in your chair
And he shines with your light
And he lays down his head
On your pillow at night

I`m just a ghost in this house
I`m just a shadow upon these walls
I`m living proof of the damage
Heartbreak does
I`m just a whisper of smoke
I`m all that`s left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
And took my body and soul
I`m just a ghost in this house
Oh, I`m just a ghost in this house
