Ghosts That We Knew
You saw my pain
Washed out in the rain
And broken glass
Saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault
No cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside
My hope torn apart
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
So lead me back
And turn south from that place
And close my eyes
To my recent disgrace
'Cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our children come
And they will hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
But hold me still
Bury my heart on the coals
And hold me still
Bury my heart next to yours
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold on with all of my might
Just promise me we'll be alright
The ghosts that we knew made us black and all blue
But we'll live a long life
And the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life
Washed out in the rain
And broken glass
Saw the blood run from my veins
But you saw no fault
No cracks in my heart
And you knelt beside
My hope torn apart
But the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
So lead me back
And turn south from that place
And close my eyes
To my recent disgrace
'Cause you know my call
And we'll share my all
And our children come
And they will hear me roar
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold as long as you like
Just promise me we'll be alright
But hold me still
Bury my heart on the coals
And hold me still
Bury my heart next to yours
So give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light
'Cause oh, they gave me such a fright
But I will hold on with all of my might
Just promise me we'll be alright
The ghosts that we knew made us black and all blue
But we'll live a long life
And the ghosts that we knew will flicker from view
And we'll live a long life
