Ghosts

Verse 1:

It all makes so much sense

I can hear it in your voice

I see it in your eyes

Now you've left me not much choice

You are everything that I despise

But f**k, that's a lie isnt it?

you have learned me all to well

It's what I tell myself to get by

To fill this hollow shell

Where can I go tonight to outrun your ghost?

Pass out on the floor

keeping me warm are the thoughts that burn the most

 

Chorus:

When will I find a place to rest my head?

drifting back and forth between lust and a lie

My mind is a resting place for the dead

memories have engraved themselves to the lids of my eyes

see them everytime I fight for sleep

I would kill, just for a dreamless night

 

Verse 2:

Just tell me when that sparke left your eye

I want to know the truth

It's all I am asking for

I may not like the answer

but hey, at least it's closure

Now my heart hits the floor

 

repeat chorus

 

Bridge:

Is he the one who makes you smile in your sleep?

because I know it can't be me

It's been a long time coming, but I never thought I'd see you this way

and I know there's not much left to say

Preventing this, impossible I know

stopping this from happening, would be like stopping the winter's snow

When he looks at you does your heart skip a beat?

don't say a word, I already know the truth

The tremble in your voice says it all

I'm hanging up the phone and going to sleep
