about

====================
A song about trying to close the chapter on a story that is blurry and fading in the rear view mirror. Trying to make sense of the unknown, like why didn't things work? What was wrong with me? What was wrong with her? Where do I go from here? Not a happy ending but an ending nonetheless.
====================

lyrics

There's a red ghost that
lingers in my mind
The real thing left a while ago
And this is what was left behind

And frankly it's not
half as cute or fun
It's silent and it's hollow and
And it's run from what was done

I guess I should have known
That she'd know how to disappear
She can tuck away her baggage
And run far away from here

There's a red ghost
That lingers in my mind
There's a red ghost
When it’s gone I’ll be fine

There's a red ghost

You learned to say goodbye to things
A long time ago
Well now I come to understand
what you already know

It's over now
The chapter's done and closed
We return to what was once our lives
And build what’s left to show

But we’ve left a trail of victims
To which we must attend
The pain caused those who trusted us
Is too much to comprehend

There's a red ghost
That lingers in my mind
There's a red ghost
When it’s gone I’ll be fine

There's a red ghost

Now I know what it means
To lose a friend
That old life don't look so bad now
I guess I learned that in the end

There's a red ghost
That lingers in my mind
There's a red ghost
When it’s gone I’ll be fine

There's a red ghost
