Ghosts never change But I am different With every breath I take I feel like if I slowed down If the whole world slowed down If you made the world slow down I could feel again I could shake this numb That’s drowning me In this fast paced world Maybe then I would feel I wouldn’t have to change I could sit all day With you And just let myself feel I wouldn’t have to lock All of this inside And maybe if I deal with it Deal with all my feelings Instead of drowning them Before they drown me Maybe I could feel Alive Okay I wouldn’t have to pretend I wouldn’t have to change Not for anyone Not ever Ghosts never change I want to be a ghost
