Ghost in the Hallway

Verse 1

Mow the lawn at dawn

Notice shapes where the maple tree is gone

The ghost in the hallway has coffee at two

It's quiet and helpful, nothing unusual

Verse 2

Normalize the whisper, accept the strange view

The suburb is sacred, the routine is true

Fall deeper down in this mundane design

Where ghosts and appliances neatly align

Pre-Chorus

Value the pavement, the mortgage, the brick

The supernatural's just a domestic trick

Breathe in the calm of the suburban trance

Give every phantom a civilized glance

Chorus

Welcome the ghost into your home

Give it a room of its own

Don't be afraid of unusual insight

Your spectral companion will keep you up all night

Verse 3

Peer through the glass at your neighbors outside

They harbor their visions with nowhere to hide

A sudden realization, crystal and bright

The dead and the living share peace every night

Verse 4

It's normal to see what the others ignore

A spectral companion right next to the door

It's just another routine day in the static

It's just another routine day in the static

Chorus

Welcome the ghost into your home

Give it a room of its own

Don't be afraid of unusual insight

Your spectral companion will keep you up all night
