Starlight Cities - Ghosts lyrics

rate me

You know she’s been here before

And she’ll accept

The punishment she keeps in waiting

I’m not about to walk outside these lines

There are no reasons

And we’re not even sleeping right

My god is she breathing anymore?

There’s something right above her bed

Beside it I can hear her screaming

You’ll never show me what you need

And I don’t owe you anything

(Is this devotion to emotion?)

The time to act just passed me by

And you’re not even alive

But I won’t open up my bed

To these ghosts inside your head

Am I irrelevant immaculate and cold

All wrapped into one?

It’s like the distance

between trusting me and nothing

How will I ever mean a thing to you?

You’ll never show me what you need

And I don’t owe you anything

(Is this devotion to emotion?)

The time to act just passed me by

And you’re not even alive

But I won’t open up my bed

To these ghosts inside your head

But I can’t walk away from you

Turn your body beneath me

Just for now you’ll let me take control

Am I a remedy?

It’s killing me

Uneasy ending

You don’t know what you’ve been taking

When you sleep I feel you shaking

But you’re not crazy babe

What do you expect from someone

Insecure and selfish like me?

I’m watching everything

Wake up wake up

To these ghosts inside your head

To these ghosts inside you
