Ghost in the Room - Numbers

I have been punished underneath the brigade

Of wealthy, greedy cowards who choose only to blame me

I was toiling toward the darkness afraid

I am weaker to the one on the throne of my fate

I only do this because I have to

I can’t believe I’ve let myself feel this bad

I only scream because I need to

I only sing so I can subdue

So where do I fit myself in your little scene?

Where dreams of stardom mean nothing to me

You only find charisma in people who scream

Look inside yourself

How shallow do you dream?

I have lived in silence

I have suffered pain

Have you listened to me?

Are you ashamed?

I have lived in shadows far too long

I would suffer with the weak where they say I’m wrong

Show where to go, what to do, one more time

I cast your truths against the source

Of where I find mine

I won’t even think about it

That you and I are alone again

You don’t even know about me

I’m just a ghost in the room to you

And I will fade away

I’m just a ghost in the room

I’ll push the wicked

I’ll run away

Knowing full well my life may not stay for long

In hopes that you follow me out

Please follow me out

Won’t you please follow me out?

There’s gotta be something to motivate all of you

There’s too much going on for my voice to break through the noise

Break through the noise

Break through the noise

Oh God, break through this noise

I won’t even think about it

That you and I are alone again

You don’t even know about me

I’m just a ghost in the room to you

And I will fade away

I’m just a ghost in the room

There’s no believing in everything

That doesn’t mean that I’m the one that needs to explain

The empty halls of libery and capital gain

Only makes me believe there’s a bigger game to be played

I won’t even think about it

That you and I are alone again

You don’t even know about me

I’m just a ghost in the room to you

And I will fade away

I’m just a ghost in the room
