Fighting a Ghost

Hold, hold me close
If love is a battlefield, I am a soldier with
Nowhere to go
Cowered and cornered and praying for someone to take
Take me home
I am a coward and I cannot stand to be alone
All alone
Left with these thoughts in my head
It's like fighting a ghost
It's like fighting a ghost
It's like fighting a ghost

Take, take a breath
If everything's fucked up don't worry it's all in your head
So they said
As they prodded and poked me and shoved different pills down my chest
I'll confess
I am a coward and I cannot stand to be alone
All alone
Left with these thoughts in my head
It's like fighting a ghost
It's like fighting a ghost
It's like fighting a ghost
It's like fighting a ghost

Leave, let me be
I am a criminal, I'll steal your heart off your sleeve
And you'll see that I'm just a coward and I cannot stand to be alone
All alone
Left with these thoughts in my head
It's like fighting a ghost

Do you still love me, like your favorite summer day?
Do you still need me, like a match that needs a flame?
Do you still want me, like you want to be okay?
Do you still love me, or do I only cause you pain?
