upon the water - spectre lyrics

Loading...

how can i inspire hope, when i find, no comfort of my own?
all that follows in my wake is an ever growing trail of ghosts
my failure compounds with their bodies in the ground
every breath i take is a debt i’ll always owe
what could i do for the world when those in my heart lie feeding the worms?

i remember, i remember the ghosts
so there’s some form to the ether

but even if i have no memory
how many names have i written on stone steps, slabs, sterile beds?
how many are now artifacts?
have i lead them straight to their deaths?

i use so much, and i give so much less
i give nothing in return for my life of excess

ten years ago i cheated death and have since kept him at bay every time we’ve met
five more and i’ve left nothing of significance

i use so much, and i give so much less
i give nothing in return for my life of excess

remorse, release, my thoughts ignite often
yet still we leap to our coffins
what could you learn from me?
i have no answers, to victory where fly my pleas?
i am nothing but a future haunting
cold sentiment precedes even warmer tendencies
but maybe one day, you’ll find your hope in the ghost that follows me
