GHOST OF YOU

(chorus 1)

I need to sleep but there's a ghost of you there

Sometimes brings me pain

But doesn't make me scared

Can't get to sleep cause there's a ghost of you there

Just a faded memory - It just isn't fair

---

I step out of myself sometimes

and go, how did I get here

To this place, I am in life

Many lessons and some fear

I need to sleep but I can't

Perpetual insomniac

Ghosts of the past keep haunting me

I close my eyes but I still see

(chorus 1)

(chorus 2)

I need to sleep but there's a ghost of you there

Disembodied voices

But doesn't bring me fear

I can't get to sleep cause there's a ghost of you there

Just a fallen entity - Life isn't fair

Is that you in my peripheral sight

Is that you hovering over me - mysterious ball of light

So many lovers - dead and alive

But only one still haunts me at night... Bryan

And then friends and family

Familiar smells and sounds - brings it all back to me

You are more than just rotting flesh

I feel your energy - I see your silhouette

So many gone for so long - but I still hear your spectral song

Emma Jean - Mike Herring - Violet - Aunt Betty

Overton, Robert - Wayne - Earl and Somber

Justice - Liz (Pretty Bird) - Atlas and Mabel - Linda

Miriam and Richard - Ryder - Lucas Kadel

Notter, Jimmy - Lonnie - Michael - Steve and Jeffery

Stepp, Douglas - Ralphie and Casey

Many more not to forget

Life goes on but you can bet

That eerie feeling in the air - is a ghost of you there

Step outside of myself sometimes and go

How did I get here - to this place I am in life

I've learned my lessons - no more fear

I need to sleep but I can't

Still the perpetual insomniac

As ghosts of the past keep haunting me

I close my eyes and I still see
