Ghost Stories Lyrics

I'm like the oldest urban legend

But a legend in my own right

I'm the reason you allegedly scared to Fall asleep at night

Hidden behind a veil of noise that's White

It's the voice of fright

People see me and jet off

At the speed of light

Some think I'm a poltergeist

Some might call me a demon

All those stories about the bogeyman

You should've believed them

I know you're wondering what that weird disembodied sound is

It's the reason you should probably go and check on your kids

I'm the piece that stays behind

When your shell has expired

Trapped between hell and earth

Escaping's an eternal desire

So I roam the halls of my old Residence

Squeaking doors and creaking floors

Anything to get these messages sent

Some are skeptical of my presence

They'll never dissent

Til they run dry of explanations

Then they're forced to repent

I'm a homebody

I creep around the house so cordial The only activities I enjoy

Are those that are paranormal

When I introduce myself

It'll be very informal

I might whisper in your ear while You sleep

Or stare from a corner

I long to be like you

'Cause I was at one time

But I'll never be again

So I'm playing tricks with your mind

I'm that thing that's lurking in the Corner

Of your right eye

But I'm too fast

'Cause when you try to look

You miss me every time

I might shift your picture frames

Leave your cabinets ajar

When I manifest the apparition

They'll say I took it too far

Press play on the sound recorder

And hear a voice phenom

That's the only reason you're able to even hear this song

It's like I'm trapped in the abyss

Some of my counterparts haunt Intelligent

Others display actions that are more Repetitive

Either way it's unsettling

Disturbing, yea, you bet is

How can you match mortal beings With forces that'll never live

Right here is the one and only place I'll always be

If you're single

You'll never be sitting alone on that Love seat

The same energy as your late Grandma

And your murdered cousin

Your mother was able to pass Through the light

But your father wasn't

Like me

He forever haunts this God forsaken Realm

Inciting startled screams and evil Dreams 'cause the presence Overwhelms

But I'm just crying out for help

And nobody seems to hear it

Eternally existing as an undying Spirit.
