Just thoughts ...
Ghost
Keep those dreaming eyes open, baby,
I can't sing you to sleep anymore.
I know what I am by now,
And I can't close this door.
This wraith of me,
She doesn't give up,
Won't let go,
And she's never heard the call.
She doesn't know she's the ghost of me,
That died when I let me fall.
The broken glass,
The stick and stone,
Cut through my paper skin.
The hands still turn,
Though the clock is broken,
It strikes the hour where I begin.
So I don't give up,
And I can't give in.
I am the tie that binds.
I hold my memory,
Keep my faith,
I can't leave me behind.
Keep those dreaming eyes open, baby,
I can't sing you to sleep anymore.
I know what I am by now,
And I can't close this door.
This wraith of me,
She doesn't give up,
Won't let go,
And she's never heard the call.
She doesn't know she's the ghost of me,
That died when I let me fall.
The broken glass,
The stick and stone,
Cut through my paper skin.
The hands still turn,
Though the clock is broken,
It strikes the hour where I begin.
So I don't give up,
And I can't give in.
I am the tie that binds.
I hold my memory,
Keep my faith,
I can't leave me behind.
