Ghost Bones

from Something Golden by worm

lyrics

my vocabulary's down to just a few thousand words
and I've got stones where my heartache used to live
I'm not leaving this grey town
and it's not really getting worse
I'm just running out of reasons I should stay

I've got ghosts in my bones
and they're trying to drive me home
but I'm not ready
I'm not ready
I've got pride behind my eyes
but if you look close you might find
you'll see right through me
see right through me

and I'm not sure just
where I'm s'posed to be
but I'm getting tired of saying
the same damn things

my vocabulary's down to just a few hundred words
and I've got holes where my worries used to live
there's a voice that's scratching to get out
and I can't quite make out the words
but I swear that it's begging me for change

I've got ghosts in my bones
and they're trying to drive me home
but I'm not ready
I'm not ready
I've got pride behind my eyes
but if you look close you might find
you'll see right through me
see right through me

and I'm not sure just
where I'm s'posed to be
but I'm getting tired of saying
the same damn things

my vocabulary's down to just a few dozen words
something 'bout what I've been avoiding, blah blah blah
I always seem to overthink it
wonder if I'll ever learn
but getting started is the hardest thing to do

I've got ghosts in my bones
and they're trying to drive me home
but I'm not ready
I'm not ready
I've got pride behind my eyes
but if you look close you might find
you'll see right through me
see right through me

and I'm not sure just
where I'm s'posed to be
but I'm getting tired of saying
the same damn things

you know, I'm still not sure just
where I'm s'posed to be
but I'm getting tired of saying
the same damn things
