Ghost

The hands of the clock walk in circles
Life stands still
Have you ever felt so hollow, so empty?
Living against your will

Time was never something I imagined I'd see
Now I watch it everyday slip away from me
There is a ghost within my mind
And shadows live in the corners of my eyes

Tell me of your first memory
Does it make you happy or bring agony?
I did what I could to forget what I can
Now the problem is, I don't know who I am
Sickness spreads
I want more
Precious poison, I adore
Erase me
Incomplete

My eyes rolling over white
I think I've been dead my entire life
Once I waited for the end
Now I want to begin again

From darkness, beauty grows
Dying roses painted gold
Warm words from cold souls
Reaching for hands you will never hold
