Haunts

There are things much better left unsaid
There are things much better left unsaid
They’re rattling clattering ‘round my head
And I’m boiling over with regret
I can’t keep nothing to myself
I can’t keep nothing for myself
I’m faking and breaking my failing health
Yeah I’m too tired to even try
I’m livin’ lies
So I’m packin’ up, I’m goin’ down
Skippin’ town to starve the shadows that I’ve
Left all around
They all feed the seeds of doubt and sorrow
Taking root inside my brain
It’s time to hop the midnight train
As it stands, nothing’s what it seems
I’m in a land of endless in-betweens
Though I’ve done what I have done, my soul
So badly wants to be redeemed
I can’t find havens left untouched
Nor peace of mind though I swear I don’t need much
As long as I am stuck here I’m a
Cripple without a crutch.
So I’m packin’ up, I’m goin’ down
Skippin’ town to starve the shadows that I’ve
Left all around
They all feed the seeds of doubt and sorrow
Taking root inside my brain
It’s time to hop a midnight train
Winter’s come, the air has dried,
The sun has gone, now so will I,
I gotta run, nowhere to hide,
So this is my goodbye... (x2)
But you should know it wasn’t all a fight
You know someday I’ll return to set this all to right
But the time has come to roost until I
Will myself to take my flight
I can’t find havens left untouched
Nor peace of mind though I swear I don’t need much
As long as I am stuck here I’m a
Cripple without a crutch.
Cripple without a crutch
So I’m packin’ up, I’m goin’ down
Skippin’ town to starve the shadows that I’ve
Left all around
They all feed the seeds of doubt and sorrow
Taking root inside my brain
It’s time to hop the midnight train
