There's voices in my empty home at night when I am all alone
From underneath the stove
And it might be lies they're selling me. I know that my heart's telling me
I'm living with a ghost.
Staying in bed was too scary,
So I grabbed all the cash I could carry
And I'm gone.
So I walked the dirty streets alone until the morning. I came home and
The ghost was in my bed.
I lay my head down at her side. She slowly opened up her eyes
And this is what she said.
"I think I'm gonna have a son. I think I'm gonna have a son
And he won't call you 'Dad,'
But it's been real and it's been fun. I'm gonna have a son."
I believed every lie that you told me,
Every alibi that you sold me.
(yeah)
Staying in bed was too scary,
so I grabbed all the cash I could carry
And right when I thought I was ready to walk out the door,
"Baby, don't leave! I know we can be the way we were before!"
*inst break*
I believed every lie that you told me,
Every alibi that you sold me,
So I grabbed all the cash I could carry.
Don't you try to stop me!
DON'T YOU TRY TO STOP ME!
I grabbed all the cash I could carry
And I'm gone.
I'm gone.
I'm gone.
