I've been the ghost And I've been the phoenix Cursed this life But I still need it I lit the match And I walked away I've been the ghost And I've been the phoenix I've been the thief And I've been the warrior I lost it all Oh fighting for ya I wear that day Around my neck I've been the thief And I've been the warrior You can't leave this life Without being haunted Somewhere between what you got And what you wanted You can't leave this life Without being haunted We're all haunted All the ones I couldn't save All the ones that slipped away All the things I broke in two All the times I cheated you All the times I let you down All the dreams I left to drown All the ends I couldn't change All the times I turned away You can't leave this life Without being haunted Somewhere between what you got And what you wanted You can't leave this life Without being haunted We're all haunted Haunted I've been the ghost
