lyrics

I believe I've seen a ghost
I believe he's in my skin
And I can't leave until I get him out and find myself again But I don't have the proper knives / To perform an apparitionectomy / These things are drawn out with a voice that sings the things that I expect of me

So I need to hear you say my name / I need to hear it from your chest
I need it pounding on the drums where all these demons try to rest
I need to hear you say my name / I need to hear it from your chest
I need it pounding on the drums where all these demons try to rest

I still believe you haven't left / But sometimes your silence shakes my faith
And my eyes are made from cavern walls, so I'm no good at these charades
So when I'm dancing in the dark / It probably looks more like I'm flailing
Or placing hands around my throat and wondering why my breath is failing

So I need to hear you say my name / I need to hear it from your chest
I need it pounding on the drums where all these demons try to rest
I need to hear you say my name / I need to hear it from your chest / I need it pounding on the drums where all these demons try to rest

And I - I feel so entitled to be heard / Demand you interpret every word / I'm so American
And I - well, I need more faith, I guess / I swear if you tell me how to get it / I'll do anything

Sometimes I'm angry, I'll admit / When it seems I'm guessing with no clues
Like there's one secret way to win and sixty million ways to lose
So if there's something I should know / Some secret message to decode
I'm admitting I can't find it, and this ghost is taking hold.
