lyrics

There's a lie flowing through our veins,
and we fight just to keep it from showing
all the truths laid upon our face;
Is the truth that is worthless, and hollow.

We've turned away from the prying eyes,
although our own drift as equally careless.
And in the end, when it goes away,
our eyes stay in this motion, repeating...

Let me find a way to breathe again.
But, it's so hard when the world caves in.
Underneath it all, we remain unseen.
We are left behind, and we are forgotten.
--Like we're ghosts.

It's a shame,
That my burdens must ease all the pain of an outcrying conscience.
And in the end, when it goes away, our eyes see that it's starting all over--

Show me how to speak, tell me what to say.
Because we are never cleaned of our dirty ways.
And we cannot change what we are meant to be.
When love comes undone, we are all erased.
We are ghosts.
