You're so broken you're on your knees You're alive but not living If I could I'd bring you back to life And that's a promise and definitely a lie to be told
You are your own resurrection I cannot help you at all If you fall I will try to catch you But how can I catch you, if you are only a phantom of what was? You'd slip right through my fingers like grains of sand in an hour glass Just like you did with my trust It slipped right through your phantom fingers
How did I ever think you were real? I should have known those whispered words were nothing but wasted air and time I could have sung songs of whispered broken hearts instead of listening to the nothing that is you So from now on I will sing of phantoms, phantoms like you The ones that use souls up and tell lies and break people's trust *I wish I knew just what you were from the start But how could I when I was blind from seeing right through you from the heart?
