Why are you frightened

Can't you see that it's you?

That ain't no ghost

It's a reflection of you

Why do you turn away

An' keep it out of sight?

Oh, don't live up to your given roles

There's more inside you

That you won't show

But you keep it hidden

Just like everyone

You're scared to show you care

It'll make you vulnerable

So you wear that ghost

Around you for disguise

But there's no need just

'Cos it's all we've known

There's more inside you

That you haven't shown

So keep on moving, moving

Moving your feet

Keep on s-s-shuffling

To this ghost dance beat

Just keep on walking down

Never ending streets

One day you'll walk

Right out of this life

And then you'll wonder

Why you didn't try

To spread some loving all around

Old fashioned causes like that still stand

Gotta rid this prejudice that ties you down

How do you feel at the end of the day?

Just like you've walked over your own grave

So why are you frightened

Can't you see that it's you?

At the moment there's nothing

So there's nothing to lose

Lift up your lonely heart

And walk right on through
