Say you stayed at home
Alone with the flu
Find out from friends
That wasn´t true
Go out at night with your headphones on, again
And walk through the Manhattan valleys of the dead

Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost
Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost

But I don´t want anybody else
I don´t want anybody else

You said I came close
As anyone´s come
To live underwater
For more than a month
You said it was night inside my heart, it was
You said it should tear a kid apart, it does

Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost
Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost

But I don´t want anybody else
I don´t want anybody else
I don´t want anybody else
I don´t want anybody else

I had a hole in the middle where the lightning went through it
Told my friends not to worry
I had a hole in the middle someone´s sideshow wouldn´t do it
I told my friends not to worry

Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost
Didn´t want to be your ghost
Didn´t want to be anyone´s ghost
