I'll Haunt You Like a Ghost

I'm drunk again And am thinking of Midas, With his Golden Touch And the Gorgons, With their stone look, Because everything I touch Turns to stone. She found me, Hanging from the rafters, The noose wrapped gently Round my breathing neck Mason jars of whiskey And packs of cheap smokes Wake me back up. She whispers, "Never leave me," While I wonder if I am even alive. I'm lookin' to the rafters Where I'm pretty sure I died. Can't fuckin' move As everything we had Now goes to shit. She's cryin' on the floor Tears mix with blood 'Cause I'm hangin' from those rafters, Drippin' down from above.
