[Verse 1]

I stored my problems in cardboard boxes

Kept them closed for years, I forgot them

Now they're open for all to see

I set traps to catch the ghosts in me

[Verse 2]

All my closets stacked ceiling-high

Just like shame, it gets stuffed inside

The more I hide it, the cobwebs grow

I’m finally letting out my ghosts

[Chorus]

Cause I know what I want

It's not what I need

Gotta get my conscience clean

You will never haunt me in my dreams

Calling out the ghosts in me

[Verse 3]

I kept stacks of letters I wrote to myself

Just to remember how it felt

Bruises will fade, scars will last

Once they heal it's a beautiful mess

[Outro]

And oh, I need some time to think

To tell you what I really need

And oh, I know I’m overdue

In giving my whole self to you

And oh, I need some time to think

To tell you what I really need

And oh, I know I'm overdue

In giving my whole self to you
