Ghosts

A Poem by TadKent
"

The ghosts of a memory, the ghost of relationship, the ghost that I turned into when I left myself behind. . Live acoustic performance here: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1940943689255&com

"

Take a look right now
There's nothing left
There's nothing but these sad old memories
to come and collect.
Take a look right now
Back to the start
Let's take it back to the black and white,
when I had your heart.

You know there's nothing else
that keeps me up at night


So Honey if you see me,
Wave goodbye
I'm just your ghost right now
Haunting you with my eyes
Take a look and you'll notice
Across the sky
I'll write your name up high
So everyone can wonder why

Someone tell me how
Get it through my head
Someone show me how to Love
and do what's right instead.
Someone teach me how
I can save my name.
Baby calm the storm inside my mind,
try to keep me sane.

Honey know there's no one else,
that keeps me up at night


So Honey if you see me,
Wave goodbye
I'm just your ghost right now
Haunting you with my eyes
Take a look and you'll notice
Across the sky
I'll write your name up high
So everyone can wonder why

Baby look around,
listen to the sound of the silence
bouncing off the walls
It's not the end
though I'm already dead, I wish I
knew this was all pretend.
Oh Lovely save my soul, only you can
make me whole again.

A little more wordy than I usual am, but I guess you just have to hear the song.
