Ghost Myself

Hear the tick tock of a clock, that doesn't work now
Waiting for the end of a world, about to burn down
Let it wither in my bones like a dead plant
Wish I could let it all go but I just can't
New flames, old dreams, rip apart seams
Haunted by a past life and never got free
Lost leaves in the trees, never grew back
Think it's for the best but there's not a way to prove that

The dark knows me well, without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that

The dark knows me well, without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that

Well aware of all my tendencies
How I love hard then leave, with only memories
My response to what I want, fight or flight
Used to chase it all night like a lightning strike
Used to go into the storm with the worst rain
Forget my own self, in hell, what's my first name?
Who am I, and am I asking to forget?
Where are we and whose the captain of the ship?

The dark knows me well, without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that

The dark knows me well without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that

Vines grow upon the wall overcrowded
I let em' touch my feet to stay grounded
Eyes water and the dirt catches rain
Rotted soil and it messes with my brain
Chronological love, it's all linear
When I'm feeling too much I get busier
Either that or I drown in the deep
And I don't make a sound til I sleep

The dark knows me well, without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that

The dark knows me well without day
I ghost myself and go away
Takes a minute to be and come back
You just gotta look at me like that
