Lyrics Family Ghost - Motherfolk

Family Ghost

In the belly of the whale
I can finally get some sleep
Now that everything is failed
All the pressure’s off of me
It feels good to feel like I am right where I should be
It feels good, it feels good to me
If I make it out alive
I might still drown in the sea
'Cause even on my better days
Sinking down feels like relief
But I don’t want you to find me hanging from the ceiling
I just thought you should know
I could go on down that road
Sometimes I still feel it
It comes up like a ghost
Like dear old friends saying «How you been?»
Don’t you wanna see what you’ve been missing?
And all along I see a shadow
Watch it grow
Must be the family ghost
Must be the family ghost
Now that things are looking up
I feel a better side of me
But I could turn for the worst
It’s just where I’m used to being
'Cause I don’t think straight sometimes
I can get excited over the smallest thing
And even one small push can send me in a spiral
It leaves me crumbling
It’s a fine fine line that I walk sometimes
But I can’t even tell if I’m still lonely
And all along I see a shadow
Watch it grow
Must be the family ghost
Must be the family ghost
All along you had the answer
In your head
You never let me know
You never let me know
All along I see a shadow
Watch it grow
Must be the family
All along I see a shadow
Watch it grow
Must be the family ghost
Must be the family ghost
Must be the family ghost
Must be the family ghost
