lyrics

It starts with a murmur or cry.
For something that's not there.
And I keep moving forwards.
Breathing deep this silent air.

I will feel a ghost tonight
It sucks the breath of my life
Spits it back, sharpens the knife
And again I feel alone tonight.

Doesn't matter what's in my heart
Doesn't matter what's buried deep.
I can only dream perfection.
And the life that's only in my sleep.

Real life isn't what was promised
Real life isn't what I need.
And again I'm alone tonight.
My head falls in my hands.

I will feel a ghost tonight
It sucks the breath of my life
Spits it back, sharpens the knife
And again I feel alone tonight.

The life that's only
The life that's only
The life that's only
The life that's only in my sleep.
