Ghosts of What Might Have Been

Team Renfield

We are the ghosts of what might have been
What could have happened.
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
What we could have done
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
The changes we could have made
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
We haunt the dreams of the saddest of men
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
We walk the halls wailing
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
We are never at peace
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
We steal another day of life away
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
Always looking behind crying
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
Never once towards tomorrow do we seek
How different it would have been

We are the ghosts of what might have been
Never buried and put away
How different it would have been

WE are the ghosts of what might have been
Never living a life is such a sin
How DIFFERENT it would have been
