Preterit of the Ghost Lyrics

Don't be afraid of sleeping

Don't be afraid of dark

In the stillness of the night

My mind starts to roam

Through the shadows of my fears

I'm far from home

I'm holding on to moments, but they slip away

What am I afraid of losing at the end of the day?

Possessions, a fleeting touch

In this world of impermanence, it's all just a clutch

But I'm haunted by the questions, as the darkness starts to creep

What are you afraid of losing?

When you're lost in this endless sleep

I've chased the stars

But beneath it all

There are these hidden scars

A fear of losing what I thought it was mine

Threatens me when I'm alone in my head

Through the depths of my soul

I guess it's not in what I own but in what I love

I tryna learn to let go

I tryna find peace while I cruise this trip

I tryna sleep but my mind won't quit

I tryna enjoy today

I know that nothing belongs to us

But I'm haunted by the questions, as the darkness starts to creep

What are you afraid of losing?

When you're lost in this endless sleep
