Lyrics Ghosts in My Heart - Mariee Sioux

Ghosts in My Heart

(dancing in the dark
In my sleep)
We’re counting in the dark in our sleep
You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams
Counting in the dark in our sleep
You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams
And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself
And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself
But little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
We’re dancing in the dark in our sleep
Hallelujahs, hiding and seeks
We’re dancing in the dark in our sleep
With hallelujahs, hiding and seeks
And a hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves
A hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves
And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
And little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
And the ghosts in this down, they can walk the walk
But every kid in this town can talk the talk
The ghost in this town, they are holding their breaths
But the ghosts in my heart, they can’t get no rest
No rest, no rest, no rest
No rest, no rest
We’re counting in the dark in our sleep
You told me graves are shaped like hives of sunbeams
A hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself
And a hammer’s to my head and you’re starving yourself
And dancing in the dark in our sleep
Hallelujahs, hiding and seeks
And a hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves
A hammer’s to our heads and we’re starving ourselves
Little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
Well, little kids' mommas have your name in their mouths
And oh, even my momma’s got your name in her mouth
And my momma’s got your eyes in her mouth
And my momma’s got her eyes in your mouth
And my momma has her eyes in your mouth
And my momma’s got your eyes in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth, in her mouth
In her mouth, in her mouth
And the ghosts in this down, they can walk the walk
Every kid in this town can talk the talk
The ghost in this town, they are holding their breaths
But the ghosts in my heart, they can’t get no rest
No rest, no rest
And the ghosts in my heart
They can’t get no rest
