Embed: When you reach that golden cloud, I'll be there with you.

If there were monsters in the closet
Well, I don't think I would be surprised.
I hear them call out from my window.
They try and trick me to come outside.
(I won't let you down)
We talked all day
I can't tell if he's real or a made-up version of her again.
Never alone 'cause I've got you.
Get this out of my head

...
No I won't waste away my love onto something new.

If there's only one way out, I'll come back for you.
If I get stuck out there forever
Tell everyone that I said goodbye.
You're on my lifelong list of wishes

And I could bring you back, but we don't belong here now.
If he stays, well that just means I've got numbered days

'Til I go back to my little world where it's just me and my imaginary friends.
...
So go on, love, find a new direction
(hold my heart, keep it for protection).
And don't get stuck on your way.
The other side's a scary place.
(Do your best not to be afraid)

Lose it all when we run away.
(Letting go of the little things you know that I do).
There's a ghost in my bedroom, and he's dying to meet you
God knows he's heard all about you.
I guess he's friendly enough though.
I'll see him more
Always sneaking roses in your bed
Says he won't let you down.
He will, he will, he will.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom)

(Ah, ah).
(He will, he will, he will)
(When the world is crashing down, when the world is crashing down).
There's a ghost in my bedroom

Ah ah
(He will, he will, he will)
He'll be there to catch you when the world is crashing down
Softly, slowly how can I go down?
I want you to notice when I let go.
Softly, slowly how can I come down?
I want you to notice when I let go.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom)
(Ah, ah).Lyrics provided by TANCODEhttp://lyricsever.com/" readonly=""/>

Ghosts Lyrics

There's a ghost in my bedroom, it haunts me at night.
I've asked him to leave, but he keeps stopping by.
Just when I think that I'm alone, it shows up again with a friend this time.
And now this is getting old.
I don't know what to do.
Metaphorically, this ghost is you.

Now this ghost in my bedroom it gives me advice
He promised one day that he'd teach me to fight.
Now when I think that I'm alone, he comes up my way with a devil's smile singing
"This is now my home. You're my wish come true."
When you reach that golden cloud, I'll be there with you.

If there were monsters in the closet
Well, I don't think I would be surprised.
I hear them call out from my window.
They try and trick me to come outside.
(I won't let you down)
We talked all day
I can't tell if he's real or a made-up version of her again.
Never alone 'cause I've got you.
Get this out of my head

...
No I won't waste away my love onto something new.

If there's only one way out, I'll come back for you.
If I get stuck out there forever
Tell everyone that I said goodbye.
You're on my lifelong list of wishes

And I could bring you back, but we don't belong here now.
If he stays, well that just means I've got numbered days

'Til I go back to my little world where it's just me and my imaginary friends.
...
So go on, love, find a new direction
(hold my heart, keep it for protection).
And don't get stuck on your way.
The other side's a scary place.
(Do your best not to be afraid)

Lose it all when we run away.
(Letting go of the little things you know that I do).
There's a ghost in my bedroom, and he's dying to meet you
God knows he's heard all about you.
I guess he's friendly enough though.
I'll see him more
Always sneaking roses in your bed
Says he won't let you down.
He will, he will, he will.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom)

(Ah, ah).
(He will, he will, he will)
(When the world is crashing down, when the world is crashing down).
There's a ghost in my bedroom

Ah ah
(He will, he will, he will)
He'll be there to catch you when the world is crashing down
Softly, slowly how can I go down?
I want you to notice when I let go.
Softly, slowly how can I come down?
I want you to notice when I let go.
(There's a ghost in my bedroom)
(Ah, ah).

Mayday Parade was born in 2005 when two popular Tallahassee bands, Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment, decided to merge and form one group. Both bands had been friends for a long time but they each seemed to have different kind of holdups. They pooled their resources, booted out the undedicated members and decided to take the good from each band and move forward. Armed with a dynamic lead singer Derek Sanders of Defining Moment, Mayday Parade explodes with energy and personality. Fans of both bands came together in support of the Parade and it wasn't long until thousands of other new fans got into the action. Mayday Parade knew they'd have to start at the grassroots level and began to work themselves to the top. Through their catchy tunes and fun attitude, they have hooked fans at their shows and online with an interactive MySpace selling 10,000 EPs without label support.

With the work hard, play hard, do whatever it takes to spread your music philosophy that most young bands need to have these days, the band took to the road and started winning over kids not just in Florida, but across the country. Mayday Parade was consistently in the top 30 unsigned artists on MySpace. They've consolidated over 50,000 friends and growing and have totaled over 2.4 Million plays. With labels hot on their tail, Mayday Parade decided that Fearless Records was the one for them and signed at the end of the summer 2006.

They then released their first professional record, A Lesson In Romantics, in 2007. Shortly after, one of the lead singers/vocalist Jason Lancaster ( lead guitarist/vocalist of Kid Named Chicago) left the band over a songwriting dispute. He then started his own band, Go Radio. There are no hard feelings between the two bands, although Lancaster later commented, "I wish it could have gone down differently."

In 2009, the band released their second album and first without Lancaster, Anywhere But Here.

Mayday Parade's live show also conveys their personality by assuring that they are intensely full of life. The band knows how to put on an engaging show with five energetic members. There's no escaping the energy that Mayday Parade brings. They're all over the stage, making sure the audience goes home happy and wanting more. They love to get the crowd engaged!

In 2011, the band released their third, self titled album. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
