Neutral Milk Hotel - Ghost
Ghost, ghost,
I know you were within me,
Feel as you fly
In from the clouds above the city
Into one that I
Loved with all that was left within me
Till we tore in two,
Now wings and rings,
And thereâ??re so many waiting here for you.
And she was born in a bottle-rocket,
1929,
With wings that ringed around a socket
Right between her spine
All drenched in milk in holy water pouring from the sky,
I know that she will live forever,
She wonâ??t ever die,
She goes,
And now she knows sheâ??ll never be afraid,
To watch the morning paper blow into a hole
where no one can escape,
De, de, deâ??..
And one day in New York City baby,
A girl fell from the sky,
From the top of a burning apartment building
fourteen stories high,
And when her spirit left her body,
How it split the sun!
I know that she will live forever
All goes on and on and on and
She goes,
And now she knows sheâ??ll never be afraid
To watch the morning paper blow into a hole
where no-one can escape,
De, de, de.
