Time Is a Ghost

All those who were seen dancing

Were thought to be insane

By those who could not hear the music

Who couldn’t hear the silence sing

Every sleepless night (feels like end times)

Every morning wide awake (feels like end times)

Every laugther died away (feels like end times)

Every walk in the Sun (feels like end times)

I'm tired of being on the road

Lonely as a sparrow in rain

All its pain, like pieces of glass

In my head all the time

I'm so tired of all the things

That whyever won’t kill me

Just make me stronger

Grand a bond, then break it

These are the past upon stories

Our unsettling death letters

Now there’s nothing left to burn

Let’s set ourselves on fire

All these people tell me, the life I live is a brave one

But fuck, I'm really just running away from the past

Our lives are impressive graveyards of buried hopes

Where we buried them like our dead, but far too shallow

Hope is but mental illness

I once was blind, but now I see

Time is but an abyss

Profound as a thousand nights

The past doesn’t exist

Nor does the future

Time is but a ghost

We are just moment after moment

Every sleepless night (feels like end times)

Every slug of whiskey (feels like end times)

Every hasty goodbye (feels like end times)

And every line I write (it just feels like end times)

I still got fire inside

But my heart is too cold

I lost something I never had

But yet it hurts as bad

'Cause those who were seen dancing

Were thought to be insane

By those who could not hear the music

Who couldn’t hear the silence sing
