Ghost
The ridge of your spine
Will cut through my fingers like a saw
When I try to hold you close
Because you are more real than most
You are here to feel and see
But I am just a ghost
Truth gleams out from those eyes
I live in shadows
You live under golden skies
A ghost must stay in fog and smoke
A ghost cannot love a human being
A ghost is not real, it is nothing
A ghost must stick to hollows and haunting
Reality destroys the false
In sun a ghost will vaporize
A truth such as you dispels all lies
Will you really caress this cheek
This corn husk skin?
Light a match I'll burn away
You come to me in the night
I cannot come to you in the day
You kiss me with red lips
Red lips that meet my mouth
Like a gaping wound
I hope I can cure it
I hope I can endure it
I hope I can infect it
Desire in my eyes
Longing in my cries
Truth within these lies
This ghost is afraid
I love you
And here's the proof
I will confine you to my snow globe of shadow
Dance for me
My candle flame of truth
Set this underground castle afire
Cast my fear onto a wet wood pyre
From the ashes will come bones
Flesh will come out from the coals
From the fires
Will rise
A human being
This present is but a shadow of the past
This "now" a shade of a future that lingers
On the horizon
I was broken from stone to sand
Clay and dust of moon
Sculpt me anew with cool slender fingers
Warm breath and a bright mind
I once was blind
But now
Will cut through my fingers like a saw
When I try to hold you close
Because you are more real than most
You are here to feel and see
But I am just a ghost
Truth gleams out from those eyes
I live in shadows
You live under golden skies
A ghost must stay in fog and smoke
A ghost cannot love a human being
A ghost is not real, it is nothing
A ghost must stick to hollows and haunting
Reality destroys the false
In sun a ghost will vaporize
A truth such as you dispels all lies
Will you really caress this cheek
This corn husk skin?
Light a match I'll burn away
You come to me in the night
I cannot come to you in the day
You kiss me with red lips
Red lips that meet my mouth
Like a gaping wound
I hope I can cure it
I hope I can endure it
I hope I can infect it
Desire in my eyes
Longing in my cries
Truth within these lies
This ghost is afraid
I love you
And here's the proof
I will confine you to my snow globe of shadow
Dance for me
My candle flame of truth
Set this underground castle afire
Cast my fear onto a wet wood pyre
From the ashes will come bones
Flesh will come out from the coals
From the fires
Will rise
A human being
This present is but a shadow of the past
This "now" a shade of a future that lingers
On the horizon
I was broken from stone to sand
Clay and dust of moon
Sculpt me anew with cool slender fingers
Warm breath and a bright mind
I once was blind
But now
