  • We left our initials on some door
    I don't know why
    You're the only feeling I ignore
    Upon my high dive

    Wake and I find you
    'Cause I want to remind you of me
    I swear to God, I'm crazy
    I don't even like her
    But the place that she hides in my dreams
    Always brings her back

    Giving up the ghost
    I've been so alone
    Heaven fell with my fall
    I stopped using the phone
    Love's remote control
    Maybe it's me
    I feel it more than most

    Could always tell by the back of her head
    She was listening
    I think I fell for the after effects
    Of reminiscing

    I don't really need her
    But if you could've seen her face
    You'd swear to God I'm crazy
    I pretend that you're late
    Defend the sores that you made
    I'll be hers whatever

    Giving up the ghost
    I've been so alone
    Heaven fell with my fall
    I stopped using the phone
    Love's remote control
    Maybe it's me
    I feel it more than most

    Don't believe what they say I'm becoming
    Don't come out or throw some words for me to see
    Can't remember when I wasn't tired
    Close my eyes, I see you walking on a wire

    Giving up the ghost
    I've been so alone
    Heaven fell with my fall
    I stopped using the phone
    Love's remote control
    Maybe it's me
    I feel it more than most

    I'm giving up the ghost
    I've been so alone
    Heaven fell with my fall
    I stopped using the phone
    Love's remote control
    Maybe it's me
    I feel it more than most Writer/s: Charles Salt, James Skelly, Joseph Donovan, Joshua Dewhurst, Myles Kellock, Thomas Ogden
