Giving Up the Ghost

Lyrics for Giving Up the Ghost

A final breath between us And it's time to let it go If there ever was regret, I'd never know Standing on the pulpit Of a future that I leave behind They said nothing could be changed, but now I know Shine in the darkness, growing around you There is a time and it is now Little sunshine, there's no reason to be sad at all You know that you know me, you know that I know you I'd just like to say I'm proud I could meet you and that smile that holds its weight in gold I gave it everything I ever had Now I leave it all to you It's up to you whether you walk your own way I know you'll find your truth And remember that I love you Some of the best times Came from friends met on the way Oh, and I hope you keep your own friends close They'll help you keep darkness at bay Oh, it can be cocktails on the moon Or a life spent trapped in sorrow But no matter where the whirlwind blows I hope you will stay in the eye I gave it everything I ever had Now I leave it all to you It's up to you whether you walk your own way I know you'll find your truth And remember that I love you always I never knew life would be such an adventure But you made it so When the Devil turned me into a penny dispenser In Tokyo And, oh, if I could stay here forever But no, I will leave you to grow on your own It's times like these we know we've made it Hold your head up high In times like these, I'm glad we braved it It's good to see you smile You'll find me dancing in moonlight on the far side I'm anywhere you want me to go I'll be laughing beside you when you grow old I'll always be swirling around Here I go and here I am and I know That you know, just like me Whether you will be a Pachinko I never thought it would be heaven in a nutshell But more than this, I think your soul will never tire All the little hopes and dreams you had acquired They took you everywhere if you're far from home Know your truth When you're alone
