My Ex-Wife's Ghost
When I looked my ex-wife in the eye,
my world was at peace.
She'd smile and hold my hand,
whisper sweet nothings.
But if I turned my back...
I could hear her sharpening knives.
Her silent laughter ringing in my ears.
On my neck, I could feel her eyes.
She was a ghost of invisible fears.
But if I looked her in the eye...
It felt just like we would have
each other forever.
She held me so tight
our bonds would never sever.
I could forget the feeling
that she wanted me dead.
When we were face to face,
I lost my dread.
CHORUS
And that's why she had to go.
When I looked my ex-wife in the eye,
my world was at peace.
She'd smile and hold my hand,
whisper sweet nothings.
But if I turned my back...
I could hear her sharpening knives.
Her silent laughter ringing in my ears.
On my neck, I could feel her eyes.
She was a ghost of invisible fears.
But if I looked her in the eye...
It felt just like we would have
each other forever.
She held me so tight
our bonds would never sever.
I could forget the feeling
that she wanted me dead.
When we were face to face,
I lost my dread.
CHORUS
And that's why she had to go.
