The Ghost Of Me

by Tarikins   Mar 29, 2005


I've tried to stop pain from finding you
I've walked on glass just to get to you
And you still don't see me next to you
I'm in love with you, if only you knew

I tried to scream out your name, but you never heard
I've tried to awaken you, but you never stirred
The words I tried to say, lost in the wind for you will never hear
All my feelings pouring out of me, in a single and last tear

And still you don't know I exist
Still I try not to raise the knife clutched in my fist
Still I hope you will notice me
Holding on to a dream in which you saw me

I've reached out to touch you, but you were never there
When are you going to notice me, when will you care?
Will you ever see me standing next to you?
I repaired your broken wings, and once again you flew

Still I am nothing to you, no matter if I call out your name
You're slowly killing me, like a moth that flew too close to the flame
I don't know why I love you, or why I care
Because you can't see me standing there

I'm the ghost of love, a shadow of happiness
Hidden within your wall of darkness
Screaming out for you to release me
For I fear our love will never be
