It's as if I had awoken from a dream
Everything once desired, lost
...
The Burning Ghost
It's as if I had awoken from a dream
Everything once desired, lost
A lifeless brain inside of me
An icy core that's trimmed with frost
At times I close my eyes to see
A ghost of you that burns my thoughts
Your voice as calming as the sea
That twists my insides into knots
I reminisce about your laugh
A lovely tune that danced about
You've always been my better half
Your love for me was surged with doubt
But now the years have faded fast
I grasp to every moment shared
Before you left I should've asked
Did you ever know how much I cared?
