Ghost Lyrics

I am a ghost searching for my killer

Overcome with jealousy

Of all the people walking by

Oblivious they're alive

An artist painting with

Memories

That I can't remember

My canvas bleeds empty

I am a poet out of ink

Writing with the blood

Of all those who came before me

Who died when they grew up

I don't wanna die knowing I

Lived for nothing

I wanna die knowing I'm

Dying for something

I don't wanna die without

Leaving something, meaningfully

Beautiful behind

I am a god nobody worships

Holding out for self worth

To validate what I create

Of a world that never worked

An arsonist bored with the flames

Of the fires they start

But never finish

Because they lack the heart

I don't wanna die knowing I

Lived for nothing

I wanna die knowing I'm

Dying for something

I don't wanna die without

Leaving something, meaningfully

Beautiful behind

I am a broken ship afraid to sink

Alone and lost at sea

But I refuse to believe I'll never feel that

Wind on my sails again

I've been drowning, I've been drowning

Searching for myself

I've been drowning, I've been drowning

Searching for myself

The waves are crashing

My boards are breaking

I'm slowly sinking

Alone at sea

Searching for myself

I've been drowning
