[Verse 1] Invisible, out of sight Passing strangers in the night Eyes down, silence in the air Pretending we're not even there We smiled on cue, we played it safe Filled the silence just in case No one asked, and no one told Not growing up, just getting old [Pre-Chorus] I think we knew, but played along Too scared to ask what felt so wrong It’s not that no one ever cared We just forgot how to be there [Chorus] We were ghosts Walking halls we’d never know Saying yes but meaning no Just afraid to be alone Living lives behind closed doors Trapped inside, but wanting more Eyes wide shut, we lost the way Chasing time that slipped away We were ghosts, I see it now Living but not knowing how To truly live, to love to see The person we were meant to be [Instrumental Solo] [Post-Chorus Chant] We were ghosts We were ghosts Just floating through the air Unaware, barely there We were ghosts We were ghosts [Instrumental Solo] [Verse 2] Hearing voices in my head All the things I left unsaid Staring out but seeing through Walls I built that no one knew Told myself I’d try someday Let the moment slip away Now it’s quiet, now it’s clear I was never really here [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] We were ghosts Walking halls we’d never know Saying yes but meaning no Just afraid to be alone Living lives behind closed doors Trapped inside, but wanting more Eyes wide shut, we lost the way Chasing time that slipped away We were ghosts, I see it now Living but not knowing how To truly live, to love to see The person we were meant to be [Instrumental Solo] [Post-Chorus Chant] We were ghosts We were ghosts Just floating through the air Unaware, barely there We were ghosts We were ghosts [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] I watched my life from far away A silent ghost in yesterday Time slipped past, I stayed the same And there's no one else to blame I wore the mask, I played the part Let the silence fill my heart I stood still and life moved on Now I'm alone, and it's all gone [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] We were ghosts Walking halls we’d never know Saying yes but meaning no Just afraid to be alone Living lives behind closed doors Trapped inside, but wanting more Eyes wide shut, we lost the way Chasing time that slipped away We were ghosts, I see it now Living but not knowing how To truly live, to love to see The person we were meant to be [Post-Chorus Chant] We were ghosts We were ghosts Just floating through the air Unaware, barely there We were ghosts We were ghosts [Instrumental Solo Outro] We were ghosts [Instrumental Solo] [Chorus] We were ghosts Walking halls we’d never know Saying yes but meaning no Just afraid to be alone Living lives behind closed doors Trapped inside, but wanting more Eyes wide shut, we lost the way Chasing time that slipped away We were ghosts, I see it now Living but not knowing how To truly live, to love to see The person we were meant to be [Post-Chorus Chant] We were ghosts We were ghosts Just floating through the air Unaware, barely there We were ghosts We were ghosts [Instrumental Solo Outro] We were ghosts
