Brandon Jenkins - The Ghost lyrics
[Brandon Jenkins - The Ghost lyrics]
He thinks about his family
The wife that he once had
He thinks about his mom and then his dad
He used to have a good life
'til he through it all away
Now he's got to live with
The choice he's made
He's got to learn to live
With the choice he's made
He said he had a child once
Heard him tell it was a boy
You know, it was his pride and joy
But then once Sunday evening
Like an order sent from above
The Lord, he took away the only one he loved
The Lord, he took away the only one he loved
The crashin' blow from the broken dreams
The alcohol and the amphetamines
Took his mind away and now he's got to pay
Damn the day that he bought the gun
He left it out and now he's lost his son
And the blame's been placed on him
And now it's sink or swim
You know the ghost still follows him
Word cannot describe the depths of
Pain that he felt
'Cause in his heart of hearts
He blamed himself
She couldn't look him in the eye when
She said that they were through
No matter what she said, she blamed him too
No matter what she said, she blamed him too
He drank so much until he couldn't stand up
He wouldn't take a hand out or hand up
His world was spiraling down
His demons wouldn't drown
The meth is more than he could handle
Lord, it sent him off just like a
Roman candle burnin' at both ends
Notify the next of kin
You know the ghost still follows him
You know the ghost still follows him
The wife that he once had
He thinks about his mom and then his dad
He used to have a good life
'til he through it all away
Now he's got to live with
The choice he's made
He's got to learn to live
With the choice he's made
He said he had a child once
Heard him tell it was a boy
You know, it was his pride and joy
But then once Sunday evening
Like an order sent from above
The Lord, he took away the only one he loved
The Lord, he took away the only one he loved
The crashin' blow from the broken dreams
The alcohol and the amphetamines
Took his mind away and now he's got to pay
Damn the day that he bought the gun
He left it out and now he's lost his son
And the blame's been placed on him
And now it's sink or swim
You know the ghost still follows him
Word cannot describe the depths of
Pain that he felt
'Cause in his heart of hearts
He blamed himself
She couldn't look him in the eye when
She said that they were through
No matter what she said, she blamed him too
No matter what she said, she blamed him too
He drank so much until he couldn't stand up
He wouldn't take a hand out or hand up
His world was spiraling down
His demons wouldn't drown
The meth is more than he could handle
Lord, it sent him off just like a
Roman candle burnin' at both ends
Notify the next of kin
You know the ghost still follows him
You know the ghost still follows him
