Sinking Ships - Ghost Story
“Been telling myself that it passes the time,
that the words they erode as the lights go dim
and in times there’ll be peace,
and the times will erase and times can break you down
Held hostage by the past,
held hostage by those days
And you wanna escape and you wanna remain here
Please don’t let me forget
Livin in this disconnect
There are times when we connect to the space,
left empty by the words
That you never exchanged and you never heard;
those words were simply felt
Been breaking yourself, you’ve been counting on time
and time takes so much to believe in
Wish me luck, let me remember
Please don’t let me forget
Livin in this disconnect
And it scares me to death to know that one day I won’t
be haunted by your ghost (Stay with me!)
That one day I’ll lay awake and struggle to remember
a face (Stay with me!)
And it will be lost, I’ll breathe; remembering that
I won’t remember anything (Stay with me!)
It never stops, it never stops, it never stops, it never…”
