Not The Ghost

(álbum: Foxlore - 2016)

Oh, turn your lamps down low
Keep the light so dim that you can't see
What's out there ahead of you
My dear, there are secrets here
I will carry them home
Carry them home

If only I could break the chain of disappointments
Weighing me down
Shake off the ghosts that whisper warnings
Whenever you're not around
I won't be afraid
Of all the things I've wanted
It's the fear, and not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, haunted

See what a life you lead:
You're an anchor for all the heaviest
Regrets inside of you
Escape; we collect mistakes
I will carry them home
Carry them home

If only I could break the chain of disappointments
Weighing me down
Shake off the ghosts that whisper warnings
Whenever you're not around
I won't be afraid
Of all the things I've wanted
It's the fear, and not the ghost
That leaves me haunted, haunted
