i become aware of you as you creep into my room
and i know if i give in your embrace will be my tomb

i want to fight i want to fail i want to dream that you're not here
i want to punch you in the face i want to scream into your ear

i cannot justify the way i feel
is this phantom presence i sense real

i worry about my attitude when i'm feeling down and low
i think about israel, jacob, paul, moses and job

i cannot justify the way i feel
is this phantom presence i sense real
