Ghost Man - Passafire

There’s a man who used to live up on the top floor

It’s obvious he never found what he was looking for

And he appeared to me one night when I came walking through that door

Looked around and he’s not there anymore

He’s here and then he disappear

Saw the ghost of a man and his voice I did hear

He told me to be quiet, it was crystal clear

I looked around, and it filled me full of fear

Then I ran all the way to my room

Like an embryo inside the womb

Stuck my head under the covers like a loon

Soon my head was light like a balloon, yeah!

I said I ran all the way to my room

Like an embryo inside the womb

Stuck my head under the covers like a loon

Soon my head was light like a balloon, yeah!

This man he had a problem with excess noise after dark

He put his finger to his lips and the sound was sharp (shhhh!)

The apparition bluntly remarked

Soon the hair stood straight up off my arms

I felt so strange, slightly deranged

Saw the ghost of a man that killed himself

With a bullet at close range

But in the afterlife he still complained

About the noise in the hall, he never changed

Looking back I wish I could remember his name

Then I ran all the way to my room

Like an embryo inside the womb

Stuck my head under the covers like a loon

Soon my head was light like a balloon, yeah!

I said I ran all the way to my room

Like an embryo inside the womb

Stuck my head under the covers like a loon

Soon my head was light like a balloon, yeah!

I saw the ghost of a man

I was in a foreign land

Straight to my bed I ran

Look up at the ceiling fan

When my friends saw my face

Sweat dripping like I just won the race

This memory I can’t erase

(ONE! TWO!)
