G.H.O.S.T
I’m open to suggestions
No time to let it go
Should’ve heard the rain fall
Now you’re just a ghost
Whispering in the wind
Yeah, you’re broken from within
[Heavy guitars crash in Pounding drums]
Broken from within!
]
I keep a conversation running underneath my breath
Arguing with every word you left inside my head
Rain against the window, boots beside the door
I still turn around like you’re coming back for more
Got a mouth full of questions and a fist full of doubt
Turn the amplifier up till it drowns you out
But the second that the feedback dies, I hear it all again
Your voice in the walls, getting underneath my skin
Just ask yourself
When there’s nothing left to say
Does the storm inside you stop
Or do you learn to look away?
Where does the rain go
When the sun hides away?
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
(I’M DYING!)
Can you hear me now?
I’ve been screaming your name
But it won’t leave my mouth
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
WHEN IT RUNS OUT!
WHEN IT RUNS OUT!
I’m hanging under pressure, got oppression at my throat
Learned a valuable lesson from the promises you broke
Now you’re just a ghost, whispering in the wind
Same old accusation, here we fucking go again
Count the cracks in the ceiling, count the hours I’m awake
Count the times I said “I’m fine” just to get another day
Now the room is getting smaller and the clock is running loud
I’m trying to say something, but I can’t get it out
Just ask yourself a question
Before the signal dies
Were you listening to my words
Or just waiting for your lines?
Where does the rain go
When the sun hides away?
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
(I’M DYING!)
Can you hear me now?
I’ve been screaming your name
But it won’t leave my mouth
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
Where does the moon go
When the lights burn out?
Where does the fire burn
When the water runs out?
I’ll never know
I’ll never know
I’ll never know…
No
Wait
There’s something I forgot to say
I’ll never forget the day I
“Clear!”
“Clear!”
“No pulse. No heartbeat.”
“We lost him.”
THE DAY
I FUCKING
DIED!
You heard the crash!
You felt the floor!
You kept your eyes
Fixed on the door!
I had a voice!
I had a name!
Before I was the news
You couldn’t bear to say!
Where does the rain go
When the sun hides away?
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
(I’M DYING!)
Can you hear me now?
There’s an echo of my voice
That you’ll never drown out
Where does the pain go
When the morphine runs out?
You leave the window open
Like I’m coming home again
I’ll never forget…
THE DAY I FUCKING DIED!
