Nothing but a ghost

Verse 1

Narrow

Shoulders slouching like a folding chair

Greasy Nathan

Sweating through your polyester shirt

Looking for a way out

Looking for a victim

Looking for a dime

You claim you owned a mountain range

Nobody saw the deed

Lies dripping

Like the oil in your hair

Chorus

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Transparent and thin

Caught in a spin

Paper thin skin

Verse 2

Stutter

Sucking teeth before the story starts

Pathetic Nathan

Bitter basement dweller counting coins

Lost your job

Lost your keys

Lost your mind

Bragging 'bout a gold watch you never had

Mirror broke when you looked in

Nervous twitch

Hand shaking while you reach for a handout

Belly flat against the dirt

Chorus

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Transparent and thin

Caught in a spin

Paper thin skin

Bridge

Weak knees

Weak spine

Weak mind

Told us you were king of the coast

Told us you were better than most

Told us you were seeing a ghost

Verse 3

Flimsy

Faking every single breath you take

Vulture Nathan

Picking at the scraps of better men

Yellow teeth

Yellow eyes

Yellow streak down your back

Fabricated fame in a rented room

Stench of failure follows

Washed out

Small man in a giant suit

Chorus

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Nathan you are nothing but a ghost

Transparent and thin

Caught in a spin

Paper thin skin

Outro

Fade away Nathan

Just fade away

Nobody is listening

Nobody is looking

Go home

Go away

Ghost Nathan
