I’ve never been so alone since last October When you thought six feet under was better than being with me It’s never been so hard trying to stay sober But what is reality when you’re all I can see? Darling, we had the world but you chose to get swallowed And left me up here with the an unbearable curse I’m followed by the remains of your lost shadow It never lets me forget how much I can hurt In the middle of every night, I feel your weight beside me Drooping down the bed and creaking the wooden floors But when I turn to look, the room is but empty And I know your ghost is waiting by the door Your memory is haunting and I have been restless The feeling of your presence is still alive And although I can’t see you, I know they exist Your ghost will be the last thing I feel tonight

Your Ghost
I’ve never been so alone since last October When you thought six feet under was better than being with me It’s never been so hard trying to stay sober But what is reality when you’re all I can see? Darling, we had the world but you chose to get swallowed And left me up here with the an unbearable curse I’m followed by the remains of your lost shadow It never lets me forget how much I can hurt In the middle of every night, I feel your weight beside me Drooping down the bed and creaking the wooden floors But when I turn to look, the room is but empty And I know your ghost is waiting by the door Your memory is haunting and I have been restless The feeling of your presence is still alive And although I can’t see you, I know they exist Your ghost will be the last thing I feel tonight
To the wonderful Dina. You are an inspiration. <3
