Ghost Machine

Ghost machine A ghost in the machine is dragging me away from you; I’m reaching out for a helping hand, but still I fall away. Deeply I sink into the ghost machine that only love can ever undo. I have no escape from this reality; I need you to be my saving grace. I can only be set free from my fate by a thing called love. The ghost machine is calling me towards its claws. Iron wheels, turn spikes of steel and I am lost in all ways. Love is the only chance I have of ever finding my way. Pull me out of this eternal end of all that is; Hold my hand and release me from the certainty of me. All the ghost machine wants to do is turn me into a ghost; But I am in need of more life. I am in need of your love now, more than you could possibly know. Release me from myself; keep my hope alive. All love can do, is give me the chance to live; Set me free from the ghost machine. I cannot let myself slip away into the never; I have no wish to be lost in the arms of the ghost machine forever. I want to live and love is my only salvation. Set me free from the fall; The end of all… My timeless love has been stolen. Turn back the clock. Help me to find what it is I have lost. (C)2017 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.
