Contract With A Ghost

Streaming sound from satellites,
Falling down like rain tonight,
They're crashing down all around us just like radio waves,
This poison's my reception,
Let it guide me through the haze,
Til the whole of our world turns gray

Pale skin in sunlight,
An outfit just for show,
We could leave this world tonight and nobody would even know,
It wouldn't be so bad,
We could just let go until the remedy takes hold,
But now there's silence til the end,
Stay with me my dearest friend,
I wont let you go until then,
The sadness fills me up until I choke,
Left alone with just a...

[Chorus]
Contract with a ghost,
Your memories fill my lungs like smoke,
I fell you crawling down my throat,
But I wont let you in this time,
No more words, not steeped in kindness,
No more words, to not remind us,
What this life is for,
We don't live there anymore

Silence is the enemy,
It travels to infinity,
This sickness go the best of me and kept me on a shelf,
At hurting you're a prodigy,
An artist of the tragedy,
Abandoning your artistry to take it on yourself,
A struggle to the Nth degree,
That overwhelmed what was to be,
I wonder why we couldn't see the things we never saw,
Existing as a mockery,
Now only in our memories,
The radiant transparency like any faith at all is gone

A momentary consequence escaping from your lips,
A static apparition holding on for one last kiss,
This negative impression,
That was destined for your wrists,
Will leave a deeper mark than the skin will ever show,
But no one will ever know

[Chorus]
