ive been your ghost
i hope you realize
seven more days
of my averted gazes
and it's the end of an era
you're not home anymore
so i'm lost
in seven days
i don't have to let it in
let you walk by
as if your posture didn't falter mine
and your presence didn't weaken me
and i don't have to pretend
like you weren't still alive
in everything i touch
oh, mind
don't let a face deface my heart
let silver cars follow me to california
and keep my eyes on the road
