"Dancing Ghosts" lyrics

"Dancing Ghosts"

This first winter sky
I can't pretend that I
Didn't know what you were
When you walked into my door

These hours that I stare into a lantern bright
I hear the train at night give promises of light

Was I lost enough
To believe in us?
Silhouettes
Dancing ghosts

It echoes through my mind
Fallin' far behind
I knew it would end this way
But I chose it anyway

Was I taken up
To your empty god
Your haunted voice
Singing ghost?

If you think of me
Some spot in memory
Just don't, don't

Was I lost enough
To believe in us?
Silhouettes dancing

Was I taken up
To your empty god?
Your haunted voice
Singing

If you think of me
Some spot in memory
Silhouettes dancing
Silhouettes dancing
Ghosts
