4. Ghost of Yesterday (3:53)
There is far more to a soul than it's vessel
Or so they say
But I must play the role for which I'm chosen
Facing judgement for all that I have made
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
Everyday it seems I'm chasing my redemption
For a life I threw away
And had I known, I wouldn't waste a second
But this is now, and now is far too late
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
Am I awake?
Or am I dreaming?
Day bleeds into night bleeds into day
This body aches
But they're the ones screaming
This is who we are, there's no escape
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
Or so they say
But I must play the role for which I'm chosen
Facing judgement for all that I have made
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
Everyday it seems I'm chasing my redemption
For a life I threw away
And had I known, I wouldn't waste a second
But this is now, and now is far too late
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
Am I awake?
Or am I dreaming?
Day bleeds into night bleeds into day
This body aches
But they're the ones screaming
This is who we are, there's no escape
I would rather lose myself 'neath these watercolour skies
And wander 'til I forget my name
She is an illusion, a ghost, but I don't mind at all
I'll dance with the ghost of yesterday
