I keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeMy friends had you figured out
Yeah, they saw what's inside of you
You tried hiding another you
But your evil is coming throughThese eyes sitting on the wall
They watch every move I make
Bright light living in the shade
Your cold heart makes the spirit shakeI had to go through hell
To prove I'm not a saint
And to meet the devil
Just to know his nameAnd that's when my love was burning
Yeah, it's still burningI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeEach time that I think you're gone
I turn around and you're creeping in
And I let you under my skin
'Cause I love living in the sinOh you never told me
True love was gonna hurt
True pain I don't deserve
Truth is that I never learnedI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeGive up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Stop the haunting, babyGive up the ghost
Give up the ghost
Give up the ghost
No more haunting, babyI keep going to the riverI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awakeI keep going to the river to pray
'Cause I need something that can wash out the pain
And at most, I'm sleeping all these demons away
But your ghost, the ghost of you it keeps me awake
