A Song For My Ghost

talk to me thru the night
im holding onto this
love, is my skin cold?
love, have i left u yet?

the pain u give saves me from myself
so hurt me til u breakthru
ive got these memories behind my eyes
ive been singing for u

hold me transparent
ghost of u, ghost of me
love, are my eyes open?
love, can u feel my body?

i feel the shock running thru my blood
as my spirit leaves here for u
give as many words as u can spare
and do the things u do

touch me thru the amber
ive been waiting for this
love, is is midnight yet?
love, can u take me now?
