Ghost (Alternative Version)

Sure no more what's real, what to feel
Thought-paralysis makes blood congeal
Trapped in limbo, to heaven no stair
Comatose soul looped in a nightmare
Falling forever into an abyss of despair

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks round here

People see right through this ghoul
This fool searching for a relevant role
A vampire, a scavenger, a mole
Sucking sunlight into a black hole
That threads of life entangle, ensnare

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks round here

Present undead in limestone cast
Though died a long ago in the past
A frigid fossil fish on a solitary shore
Of a dead sea and touched no more
For intimacy is more than he can bear

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks round here

A dry flower beheld by parchment eyes
Living in a weathered book of lies
Its barren fragrance fresh in the rosaries
Of his formalin-perfumed memories
That rip his heart, fabric of reality tear

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks round here

Could've been a time-sweetened wine
Sipped and savoured by friends divine
But his moss-laden cellars have been
Concealing bitter potions muscarine
That have never seen a day of fresh air

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks
Who walks
Round here

Could've been a time-sweetened wine
Sipped and savoured by friends divine
But his moss-laden cellars have been
Concealing bitter potions muscarine
That have never seen a day of fresh air

He is seen but he is not really there
He is a ghost who walks
Who walks
He is a ghost who walks
Round here
