[Verse 1]
I don't pick up the mail
I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer the door
I'll just soon be alone
I don't keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don't live in these rooms
I just rattle around

[Chorus]
I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse
I haunt these halls
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house

[Verse 2]
I don't care if it rains
I don't care if it's clear
I don't mind stayin' in
There's another ghost here
She sits down in your chair
And she shines with your light
And she lays down her hair
On your pillow at night
[Chorus]
I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
I'm living proof of the damage
Heartbreak does
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house
