Entertaining Old Ghosts (1999) Lyrics

Our eyes shine like metal

And they rust as we cry

We cannot forget her

Even though we try

We have slivers of silver

Cutting deep down

A strangled echo in the sermon

"Dig, dig, dig the ground"

We galvanise our bodies

With the pain that we feel

Staying close to the shadows

So we don't get seen

Entertaining old ghosts

We kiss each other quietly

And just because you don't look at me...

Bleeding hearts in a circle of strangers

Pouring out thoughts

They've never known before

And your whisper slices silence

"I cannot move"

Now I don't want to cry

I want to let go

Our eyes shine like metal

With the pain that we feel

Staying close to the shadows

So we don't get seen

Entertaining old ghosts

We kiss each other quietly

And just because you don't look at me

It doesn't mean you don't like me

Like me

Like me

Bleeding hearts in a circle of strangers

Pouring out thoughts

They've never known before

Your whisper slices silence

"I cannot move"

Now I don't want to cry

I want to let go

Our eyes shine like metal

And they rust as we cry

(In a circle of)

Our eyes shine like metal

And they

Rust

Echo in the sermon

Bleeding hearts in a circle of strangers

Pouring out thoughts

They've never known before

And your whisper slices silence

(Please)

"I cannot move"

Now I don't want to cry

(Please)

I want to let go

Our eyes shine like metal and they rust

In a circle of strangers

We cannot forget her

In a circle of strangers

Entertaining old ghosts

Entertaining old ghosts

Old ghosts
