Anatomy Of A Ghost

Walls crash down around us
Standing atop the ocean.
These breaking waves
Threaten to drown the world.
And this canvas of sheets so ethereal.
Morning comes to breakfast “please tell me before I wake.”
It's tied down
So I don't forget to breathe.
One masquerade for the last parade.
So, these hands back down.
Lungs fill the blood.
“you never told me you hate me”
But, you showed it so well.
And this won't be the last time.
Take your time don't regret, the fall ends shortly.
No, we wont be holding on or holding out for you.
Just take your time it was all your choice.
We lost you climbing up,
You were so sure so confident.
You could jump off and just float away
But, don't expect to be saved.
It's tied down
So I don't forget to breathe.
One masquerade for the last parade.
So, these hands back down.
Now, pretend that I'm back to the “please tell me how.”
Hearts don't forget to break.
Walls crossed behind we fall down
the bridges that carry us home.
