I thought this was dead
And acted like I was so far from it
Yet I'm farther than I've ever been
Old ghost in my head
Please don't take what I have left
Even though it's something that I might regret

It's like a burning heat when you see me
But we both know that it won't go that far
Oh, it won't go that far
You said you never felt safe with someone new
But here tonight you don't know who you are
Who you are?

But what a waste
If this weight is something that I can't escape
That I can't escape
'Cause I would wait
My whole life to see you just before you wake

Still stuck wondering
And caught between if I should say something
But if I say something will it be the end
And old ghost will this spread
And eat the the lungs that I had left
Oh dear, am I weak or just a kid?

It's like a burning heat when you see me
But we both know that it won't go that far
It won't go that far
You said you never felt safe with someone new
But here tonight you don't know who you are
Who you are?

But what a waste
If this weight is something that I can't escape
That I can't escape
'Cause I would wait
My whole life to see you just before you wake
Ooh

And old ghost this has spread
And ate the lungs that I had left
Found out I'm weak, no longer just a kid
