I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
My friends had
you figured out
Yeah they saw
what's inside of you
You tried hiding
another you
But your evil was
coming through
These eyes sitting
on the wall
They watch every
move I make
Bright light living
in the shade
Your cold heart
makes my spirit shake
I had to go through
**** to prove I'm not insane
Had to meet the devil
just to know his name
And that's when my
love was burning
Yeah it's still burning
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Each time that I
think you go
I turn around and
you're creeping in
And I let you
under my skin
'Cause I love
living in the sin
Boy you never told me
True love was going to hurt
True pain I don't deserve
Truth is that I never learn
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Stop the haunting baby
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
No more haunting baby
I keep going to the river
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
I keep going to
the river to pray
'Cause I need something
that can wash all the pain
And at most I'm sleeping
all these demons away
But your ghost
The ghost of you
It keeps me awake
