[Verse 1] I pass through the turnstile No ticket, no sound My name on the glass But I don’t stick around I leave cold prints On the edge of your day Half in the hallway Half blown away I watch you laugh From behind the pane You call it a habit I call it a chain [Pre-Chorus] I’m there, then I’m gone Like breath on a mirror You reach for my hand And I just go clearer [Chorus] I’m a ghost in the world I’m a ghost in the world You can call my name The world continues to change Paper through me Paper through me I was here for a second Then the second left me [Verse 2] The bus goes by slow Like it knows my face I sit with the crowd In an empty place Your blue coffee cup On the table still I’m learning the shape Of a house that’s still I haunt little things Like a spoon in a sink A coat on a chair A word you don’t think [Pre-Chorus] I’m there, then I’m gone By the edge of your hearing You look right at me But I don’t keep appearing [Chorus] I’m a ghost in the world I’m a ghost in the world You can call my name The world continues to change Paper through me Paper through me I was here for a second Then the second left me [Bridge] Maybe I’m not gone Just split at the seam One foot in your morning One foot in a dream So if you feel me When the room goes still That’s me at the window Learning to heal [Chorus] I’m a ghost in the world I’m a ghost in the world You can call my name The world continues to change Paper through me Paper through me I was here for a second Then the second left me
