Give Up the Ghost
© A. Zoli 2011 (ASCAP)

Take all your stories, your cigarettes and go
I have no use for them anymore
You said what you needed, now be on your way
No sense making small talk when you don’t plan to stay

Drift on and away
Drift on and away

I’ll pick up the pieces and put down the knife
I only need good things in my life
I’m choosing my battles and this one I’ve lost
So much for love no matter the cost

I drift on and away
Drift on and away

You expected me to always be the one in need
so you could feel better
And through all your rage, I’d always say that it would change
if we stayed together
But it never works, it’s always worse
and we end up hating each other

Oh I drift on and away
I drift on and away
I drift on and away
I drift on and away

I give up this demon, I give up this ghost
No longer will you be the one I love most
