All My Friends Are Ghosts

about

This is the first song I was really comfortable with playing, and was the reason I decided to really pursue music as a career. I wrote It in 2010 over a 2 or 3 day period while living in Waverly, IL. Basically the song is based around the feeling I would sometimes randomly get while hanging out with friends. Its like you are sitting there, smoking, hanging out doing whatever, and you suddenly feel like someone who was just in the group with you left. Almost like youre hanging out with a ghost or something. I thought the idea was sort of funny, so I went with it and had a lot of fun writing vocals to that up-beat chord progression.

lyrics

I swear I woke a ghost with this one,
I brought her right out of her fuckin’ grave,
And she said “do you mind if I hang with you for a while?”
Well I said “No Im not prejudice, if youre alive or dead, you can hang with this! As long as shit doesn’t get creepy, you can kick back and chill with me.”
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone, I wont tell anyone
Youre not alive
Well It didn’t take long for my friends to see,
That the ghost was smokin’ bowls like a Cherokee,
The next thing I know, she was out the door,
But she was back the next night, and ready for more,
And I know that it sounds strange, And I know it seems insane
But never take a ghost to a party,
Cause if you smoke around a ghost it makes them hard to see,
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone, I wont tell anyone
Youre not alive
And if you think youre alone, the truth is that youre never ever really alone,
And its better to,
Offer up your home, and let them know theyre more than welcome to come smoke,
And chill with you,
All my friends are ghosts (x6)
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone
And we’ll all keep singing along,
And I wont tell anyone, I wont tell anyone
Youre not alive
All my friends are ghosts
