I close my eyes, but I still see!
I'm hollow, a phantom!
Floating in between
Until I fall asleep!
I'm fabricating
My lucid dream!
I feel your presence, but you're out of reach!
Your silhouette's all around, it lives inside my head
Am I awake or is this a dream?!
The lights flicker in the hall and then you're gone again
Nothing was ever the same!
And in another life, I would've built up my walls around you
Lived to hold you, yeah
And in another life, I could've carried us home
To be what we wanted to
Looming over me!
Your shadow hides behind every face I see!
And I can't tell what is make-believe!
I've tried pretending
You're what I need!
This house is haunted, but it's part of me!
Your silhouette's all around, it lives inside my head
Am I awake or is this a dream?!
The lights flicker in the hall and then you're gone again
Nothing was ever the same!
And in another life, I would've built up my walls around you
Lived to hold you, yeah
And in another life, I could've carried us home
To be what we wanted to
All I can see, all I have known are memories (memories!)
Can feel the hole in my heart, still chasing ghosts in the dark
All I can say, all I have known just fades away (fades away!)
Wish I could be where you are, never thought I'd end up so far
Dead to me!
Tear down the pieces of what remains!
You'll never go away!
When the walls are caving (when the walls are caving!)
I'll bury your name (bury your name, bury your name!)
And erase all my memories!
Your silhouette's not around, it lived inside my head (inside my head, inside my head)
The lights flicker in the hall, but they won't shine again (shine again)
Dead to me!
