I'm sitting up with the ghosts
just what we're doing I don't know
I'm so tired of thinking
I shouldn't be thinking about you at all
I forget not to think of your face
trying to get out of this place
just sends my senses so far inside
deep into outer space
I'd carry you home in my hearse
if I only knew where you were
are you up in the sky? out in the night?
wherever you are, are they treating you kind?
If I were to run into you
there's no telling what I might do
would you step off the path
would you bury the ax
that's lately been breaking my back
So I'm staying up with the ghosts
'cause they're the only ones who know
time just stands still when you're waiting to heal
up enough to put weight on the bones
feels like I'm running away
haven't left this room in days
lately I'm talking to ghosts
'cause they're the only ones who know
