Phone Ghost

You spoke of the city pressure growing
Tired and worked to the bone
You ring me to say you're getting better
Now you've found something real

Someone real I knew
I used to have blood that ran back to you

You told me that you would stay home waiting
Holding on for something real
What happened to the person I saw?
Phone calls can't explain

Someone real I knew
I used to have blood that ran back to you

Now your sunken eyes are just emeralds that won't shine
A look that says you've nothing left to lose
A ghost in the machine that knows everywhere I've been
What happened to the person that I knew?
