lyrics

Shadows fall as day turns into night.
Common place gives way to second sight.

Familiar faces haunting me
Captivated by their clarity
Worn down by the freedom to indulge
The latent hopes of all they could have done.

At first I almost make sense of what’s there.

Chasing the ghosts of the people who were
In the disguise of what was.
Trapped in the dance of their youth, unforgotten, they turn
To stills of what they were before.

Conscious now of all I mis-recall
Like hazy outlines on the wall.
Compelled by their sincerity
To accept the animosity.

So seconds later we are running scared.

‘Although your memory holds the key…you can’t unlock the door!’

At first I almost make sense of what’s there
But seconds later we are running scared.
There’s freedom if you dare.

Chasing the ghosts of the people who were
In the disguise of what was.
Trapped in the dance of their youth, unforgotten, they turn
To noises from outside the door.

‘Although your memory holds the key…you can’t unlock the door!’
