lyrics
The ghost towns, that highway home
They rattle my bones, I'm shaky in the brain
Sing strong, the radio's on
Closing our eyes, forgot the world has changed
Smokey skies, hazy eyes, the west coast in flames
But all I know they rattle my bones
And I'm not sure what else to say
There's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me in a most peculiar way
There's a ghost in my closet
Don't know what he wants but I might just ask him to stay
It's a cloudy cold night, the ghost is a nice surprise
I was just getting lonely again
But there's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me
He rattles my bones, he rattles my bones away
The boarded doors, the dead neon
My canceled plans, the gentle autumn rain
It's all good, all bad
A smokey hoax, a lazy runaway
Her soft lips, sleeping eyes in a bed so far away
Oh what a fool, what a guy
And I'm not sure what else to say
There's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me in a most peculiar way
There's a ghost in my closet
Don't know what he wants but I might just ask him to stay
It's a cloudy cold night, the ghost is a nice surprise
I was just getting lonely again
But there's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me
He rattles my bones, he rattles my bones away
I've been haunting me
Like my mind haunts the streets in my rearview
I've been haunting me
I'll take the chains but I can't bear the truth
I've been haunting me
Like the eerie beat of a long-dead tune
I've been haunting me
When I close my eyes, you know I wish it was you
I wish it was you
There's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me in a most peculiar way
There's a ghost in my closet
I know what he wants but
He rattles my bones, he rattles my bones away
There's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me in a most peculiar way
There's a ghost in my closet
I know what he wants but I might just ask him to stay
It's a cloudy cold night, the ghost is a nice surprise
I was just getting lonely again
But there's a ghost in my closet
He's trying to haunt me
He rattles my bones, he rattles my bones away
