Ghost Of A World
We wave at the mist
Of a thousand castles won
We claw at the past
Hoping to escape this cage unleash this rage
We read the heavens
But it's over and done
Our burning satisfied at last
Never to return to old ways
We left behind the future
Ignorant quixotic dreams
A chasm without a suture
Crushed and burning all who believed
Thru the waves we fight lost and alone
A silent sea of apathy
We reach for the night just wanting to breathe
Our fathers held so much hope for this place
Praying we build into eternity
We bow to thee
But light years away
A still burning ember
Sees a wound in the heart of the night
Torn open for all to see
We try to fly but we're held underwater
At times we swim so bold then comes in the cold
Holding our hands to the sky
Praying for a miracle
Won't somebody save us
The universe has broken me
I live in a ghost of a world
Thru the waves we fight lost and alone
A silent sea of apathy
We reach for the night just wanting to breathe
Time's running out on this little blue pearl
It's never in doubt
We live in a ghost of a world
Of a thousand castles won
We claw at the past
Hoping to escape this cage unleash this rage
We read the heavens
But it's over and done
Our burning satisfied at last
Never to return to old ways
We left behind the future
Ignorant quixotic dreams
A chasm without a suture
Crushed and burning all who believed
Thru the waves we fight lost and alone
A silent sea of apathy
We reach for the night just wanting to breathe
Our fathers held so much hope for this place
Praying we build into eternity
We bow to thee
But light years away
A still burning ember
Sees a wound in the heart of the night
Torn open for all to see
We try to fly but we're held underwater
At times we swim so bold then comes in the cold
Holding our hands to the sky
Praying for a miracle
Won't somebody save us
The universe has broken me
I live in a ghost of a world
Thru the waves we fight lost and alone
A silent sea of apathy
We reach for the night just wanting to breathe
Time's running out on this little blue pearl
It's never in doubt
We live in a ghost of a world
