empty shell
hollow & haunted
keep searching
I think you’ll find
not what you expect
but an absence of light
search all you want
between
here and near
far and wide
climb every mountain
enjoy great heights
but you won’t ever find me
in your line of sight
I am a ghost
and I think in the form
of lyrics and nightmares
and I wait for the demons
to not follow me home
but when I arrive
at my destination
I am never
never alone
I know you think you know me
but the truth is
you only know what you see
we both know our eyes can play tricks
and my eyes were meant to deceive
but please
by all means
search deep
if you think
you can find my soul
but when you don’t find it
just know
a nuclear reaction
can produce gold
I think in the form
of lyrics and nightmares
I wait for the demons
to not to follow me home
when I arrive at my destination
I am never
never alone
I am a ghost
