my beloved ghost

now you are my beloved ghost
and here i’ll wait for you to sing
and we will have eternity
a promise to keep haunting me
this wine
from my veins
these gifts
we’ll take

the sky is ours to keep tonight
together in this silent sleep
we are the mist that fills the air
lie still, just be with me

this wine
from my veins
these gifts
we’ll take
and i’ll be
the kiss
the gun
we’ll be draining their blood again
embrace the rest of me
we’ll be racing through the night
again, embrace the rest of me
and we’ll feast on them, celebrating

i’m not alone, i can feel your eyes on me
i’m not alone, your soul for all the world to see

denied another day
life took you away
i’ll love you just the same

’cause you are my beloved ghost
and here i’ll wait for you to sing
and we will have eternity
a promise to keep haunting me
the sky is ours to keep tonight
together in this silent sleep
we are the mist that fills the air
lie still, just be with me

i’m not alone, i can feel your eyes on me
i’m not alone, your soul for all the world to see
to see
