Ghost from the past
Your drunken stumbling
Has brought back everything
So long forgotten


Now you loom over me
In dreams and memories
With every moment dragging by
I see your face

How did you pass
Through all these walls
That reach so endlessly
Into the sky?

You seem to always come
To chase away the sun
An apparition
Forever lurking

So gloomy now
As I speak your name
Ghastly thoughts of indecision's reign

Why have you come to haunt me?
After all this time
When I had it all securely locked away
And now it all comes crashing down to sway
Emotionless and apathetic days
Coaxing out the feelings and the pain


I could find peace of mind inside your eyes
If you would let me
And I will wait forever if you make me.
