Built a house to escape to Found out it's filled with ghosts Had to break my mind in two To accommodate the thoughts. They won't leave, they won't go Only I can know What a drag of a show it is to feel, But to not be, alone. I dreamed of mastering the dark And I do, but now it filled my life With truths and lies and masks in disguise. Praying for light, as I muffle my cries. And I don't break, I don't go Cause only I can know How to master the thoughts Of a ghost in disguise. I'm a liar and a cheat And I pray to my own heartbeat For it to stay and let me lay, Down my sorrow and my tainted name.

Ghosts in disguise
Built a house to escape to Found out it's filled with ghosts Had to break my mind in two To accommodate the thoughts. They won't leave, they won't go Only I can know What a drag of a show it is to feel, But to not be, alone. I dreamed of mastering the dark And I do, but now it filled my life With truths and lies and masks in disguise. Praying for light, as I muffle my cries. And I don't break, I don't go Cause only I can know How to master the thoughts Of a ghost in disguise. I'm a liar and a cheat And I pray to my own heartbeat For it to stay and let me lay, Down my sorrow and my tainted name.
