Not the Ghost Lyrics

Oh, turn your lamps down low,
Keep the light so dim that you can't see
What's out there ahead of you.
My dear, there are secrets here--
I will carry them home,
Carry them homeIf only I could break
The chain of disappointments weighing me down,
Shake off the ghosts
That whisper warnings whenever you're not around.
(You're not around)
But I won't be afraid
Of all the things I've wanted--
It's the fear
And not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, hauntedSee what a life you lead:
You're an anchor for all the heaviest
Regrets inside of you.
Escape-- we collect mistakes--

I will carry them home,
Carry them homeIf only I could break
The chain of disappointments weighing me down,
Shake off the ghosts
That whisper warnings whenever you're not around.
(You're not around)
But I won't be afraid
Of all the things I've wanted--
It's the fear
And not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, haunted
