Ghosts

There's a shadow looming over me
A presence that I can't see
Shrouded in darkness it leans on in
Stealing air from my lungs, I can't win

I plead to the night ahead
Don't confine me to the sheets of this bed
I'm at war with my mind, and the hands of time
Spiralling in my head

It's a battle every day
To keep the ghosts away
How can I leave this bed
With these thoughts in my head?
I lay awake in this hell
How long has it been? I wish I could tell
As the demons come out to play
I fight to keep these ghosts away

A crawl in my skin, awake
A monster born from my mistake
I drown in sorrow, and wish for tomorrow
If I don't bend and break

Help me see the light
Help me win this fight
Get these ghosts away

It's a battle every day
To keep the ghosts away
How can I leave this bed
With these thoughts in my head?
I lay awake in this hell
How long has it been? I wish I could tell
As the demons come out to play
I fight to keep these ghosts away

Help me see the light
Help me win this fight
Get these ghosts away
Before they come out to play
Help me see the light
Help me win this fight
Get these ghosts away
Cause I can't take another day

It's a battle every day
To keep the ghosts away
How can I leave this bed
With these thoughts in my head?
I lay awake in this hell
How long has it been? I wish I could tell
As the demons come out to play
I fight to keep these ghosts away

The figure of a friend
In the corner of my eye
They wave through the window pane
Is it hello or goodbye?
A question leaves me restless
Do they know how much I cry?
I try to leave this prison
But is this where I die?
