Ghost Song Lyrics

I keep going
I keep going
I keep going to the river to pray

I keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out 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 (Ooo-ohh)

I had to go through hell 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 out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake
(2x)

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
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

Each time that I think you go
I turn around and you're creeping in
And I let you under my skin
Guess I love living in the sin

Oh, you never told me
True love was gonna hurt
True pain I don't deserve

I keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out 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 out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you
It keeps me awake

“Ghost” by Josh Fawaz – It is a very emotional song which speaks about how the individual wishes to break free from a painful relationship which still haunts them. In the song, the individual wishes for some closure and healing through his/her memories which are still fresh in the mind. The phrase “ghost of you” is used throughout the song as a metaphor to speak about the individual’s struggle to get rid of the relationship he/she was once part of. Through its reflective and emotional lyrics, “Ghost” is all about heartbreak, healing, and moving forward from the past.
