Your ghost haunts my dreams It won’t let me sleep Its face is always a blurry photograph I repeat the lines you said to me “Don’t leave me, don’t let me fade away. Stay with me, don’t leave me be.” I watch you fade as the darkness encloses I see you cry as my sorrow passes through You hear me scream as the smoke hides all Life is nothing now, because we are gone The feeling of falling is finally free, But the feeling of breathing is so far Help won’t come for us, even if we cry Snow suffocates our minds into twisted children Always remembering, but also forgetting Never living out our dyings Skidding to a halt at our final light Don’t let me die on my own Please let me live all alone

Sorrow Passing Through
Your ghost haunts my dreams It won’t let me sleep Its face is always a blurry photograph I repeat the lines you said to me “Don’t leave me, don’t let me fade away. Stay with me, don’t leave me be.” I watch you fade as the darkness encloses I see you cry as my sorrow passes through You hear me scream as the smoke hides all Life is nothing now, because we are gone The feeling of falling is finally free, But the feeling of breathing is so far Help won’t come for us, even if we cry Snow suffocates our minds into twisted children Always remembering, but also forgetting Never living out our dyings Skidding to a halt at our final light Don’t let me die on my own Please let me live all alone
