[Verse 1]
Venom on my tongue
Still I crack a grin
All these tiny cuts
Hide under my skin
You say that you love
Then you twist the knife
I laugh it off, shrug it off
Lie about my life
[Chorus]
I'm a ghost in my grin (ghost)
You see teeth, not the sin (yeah)
All this hurt in my throat, I just swallow it whole
Turn the poison to a joke when I’m losing control
I'm a ghost in my grin
You see shine, not the dim
All this pain in my chest that you never will know
So I haunt my own heart and I smile like a ghost
[Verse 2]
You call me “you’re fine”
I call it “act two”
Curtain never drops
Still I play it for you
Every “I’m okay”
Got a crack in the sound
You don’t hear the tremble
You just hear the clown
[Chorus]
I'm a ghost in my grin (ghost)
You see teeth, not the sin
All this hurt in my throat, I just swallow it whole
Turn the poison to a joke when I’m losing control
I'm a ghost in my grin
You see shine, not the dim
All this pain in my chest that you never will know
So I haunt my own heart and I smile like a ghost
