lyrics

Sometimes it’s just easier to turn it off than try to turn it all around
When conversations full of exit cues and all these little executions wear us down
Try to find a smile to hide embarrassment and all the time spent pondering
The failures and misuses of true honesty, a thousand other prickly things

We tried (advance and then retreat)
We tried (the dances of defeat)
We tried (with promises to keep)
We tried (but spirits own these streets)

Everyone I know is a ghost, there’s no way around it
My life’s become a haunted house, there’s no doubt about it
Oh, and everything I know is a joke, but I forgot the punch line long ago
And everyone I know is a ghost

Sometimes it’s just easier to turn it off
Than try to turn it all around
When conversations full of exit cues
And all these little executions wear us down
Working out the glitches and the kinks of moving up and down
The ladders of each other’s lives
Fingers slipping off the edge of things we never owned
But only borrowed for a little while

We tried (advance and then retreat)
We tried (the dances of defeat)
We tried (with promises to keep)
We tried (but spirits own these streets)

Everyone I know is a ghost, there’s no way around it
My life’s become a haunted house, there’s no doubt about it
Oh, and everything I know is a joke, but I forgot the punch line long ago
And everyone I know is a ghost
