I am the ghost
Who stole the world.
These shadows should have known,
I suppose but I could not
Steal the girl.
I sleep restless,
In cold silhouettes,
You cry
Confusion is racing,
Inside my head.

But hadn't I, done what I did
Would these candles light
Your face again?
Maybe next time,
We'll fall through the holes in the sky
And sing a lovesick lullaby.

Stones turn to ashes,
As bones turn to dust.
Cradled compassion
Ordinary I suppose
That I care too much.
Gasoline rainbows,
And torn spider webs
You are the reason,
That is inside my head.

But hadn't I, done what I did
Would these candles light
Your face again?
And maybe next time,
We'll fall through the holes in the sky
And sing a lovesick lullaby.

I am the man on fire
Confused and colorblind.
I am the man on fire,
Dream in black and white.

But hadn't I, done what I did
Would these candles light
Your face again?
And maybe next time,
We'll fall through the holes in the sky
And sing a lovesick lullaby.
