Lyrics
GHOSTWRITER
strangers stare
a ghost-written telegram
dirty looks and some meanness offered
seeing me through the sharp eyes of another
a pack of souls fueled by empty hate
you?ve got a story
you?ve got a story
that?s all
it never happened to you
it?s half a story
it?s half a story
that?s all
it never happened that way
once dear friend
a shadow of former self
why do you haunt when you can speak to me?
afraid of what you?ve got inside?
sharp eyes narrow because the truth is a glare
you?ve got my story
you?ve got my story
inside
it could happen to you
in the dead sea
I see the sirens in your eyes
hollow cries
I wish you could hear me
decomposing
the tales you carry
your path has become childlike familiar
fed your own lies in a greedy circle
never enough, you bleed each other white
you?ve got a story
a ghost story
my friend
it?ll happen again
in the dead sea
I see the sirens in your eyes
hollow cries
I wish you could hear me
you pulled the trigger on your truth
that?s why you won?t talk this through
now half souls carry your lies
my story seen through your eyes
you know it?s not like that
you know the truth is not like that
