The Friendly Ghost

from Sleep Tight, Lucky Grills [EP] by Koala Fires

/

lyrics

I think of everything most of the time when it's tomorrow, and I have absolutely nothing on my mind when it's today. So,we start it all over again; We start a song but I'm already gone, thinking only what I thought of yesterday, I cannot make my little fingers play. There's a ghost that haunts this very stage, although he acts only half my age; It's me, it's me after only 28 years. I hear the angel band singing my last song,but they're getting all of the lyrics wrong. I scare myself, now if I could only scare you, but that just wouldn't do. I think of all the things that I will never see, before tomorrow, and then of all the things that will not look at me, when it's today. So, we start it all over again; We start it strong and I sing it too long, hoping everything will somehow fade away and I will somehow be alive another day. There's a ghost that haunts this very stage, although he acts only half my age; It's me, it's me after only 28 years. I hear the angel band singing my last song,but they're getting all of the lyrics wrong. I scare myself, now if I could only scare you, but that just wouldn't do.
