They haunt my dark corners
They linger like smoke in my eyes
They lead me down an empty path
The ghost of my past
They bring only acid tears
They chase away my fleeting joy
They trap my soul and **** my heart
The ghosts of my past
They can not destroy me now
They have no hold on my love
They cease to exhume my tragedies
You are the light of my future
You set my horizon ablaze
You ignite my imagination
You free my spirit
My past is only a ghost

They haunt my dark corners
They linger like smoke in my eyes
They lead me down an empty path
The ghost of my past
They bring only acid tears
They chase away my fleeting joy
They trap my soul and **** my heart
The ghosts of my past
They can not destroy me now
They have no hold on my love
They cease to exhume my tragedies
You are the light of my future
You set my horizon ablaze
You ignite my imagination
You free my spirit
My past is only a ghost
