Green-Eyed Ghosts(Verse 1)The room gets loud, but I only hear your nameEveryone’s laughing, but I’m caught in the flameYou caught his eye, and my heart hit the floorNow I’m pacing the shadows behind closed doorI’m picking at threads that I know aren’t thereBuilding a mountain from a stranger's stare(Pre-Chorus)It’s a sickness, a fever, a thief in the nightMaking the darkest of shadows feel brightI hate that I need you, I hate that I careI see green-eyed ghosts floating everywhere(Chorus)Oh, my jealousy’s a monster I feed with my fearsIt twists all your laughter to spite in my earsIt paints me a picture of what I could loseAnd leaves me with bruises I gave myself, tooI’m holding you tight, but I’m slipping awayScared of the night and afraid of the day(Verse 2)You fix your collar, you turn toward the lightI’m trapped in my head, making up a new fightIs it something I’m missing? Am I losing my place?I read too much meaning in your every embraceWe’re dancing a waltz on the edge of a cliffHanging on every "maybe" and "if"(Bridge)I want to be water, just flowing right throughBut I’m an anchor, dragging down youThis green-eyed monster, it makes me so blindTell me, can I leave all these feelings behind?Or am I just destined to burn with this spark?Reaching for you in the cold, crowded dark(Chorus)Oh, my jealousy’s a monster I feed with my fearsIt twists all your laughter to spite in my earsIt paints me a picture of what I could loseAnd leaves me with bruises I gave myself, tooI’m holding you tight, but I’m slipping awayScared of the night and afraid of the day(Outro)Just look at me, tell me I’m the only oneLet me feel warm again under your sunI’ll lock up the monster, I’ll throw out the key‘Cause the only thing breaking my heart......Is me.
