lyrics
Won’t you tell me again, how my heart’s in the right place, when it feels so lost, and my chest feels vacant.
So hang a sheet on me, to hide my loneliness, call me a ghost, because I am transparent
The marble floor is colder than I remember, and I tremble in that memory
If you stay we could stare at the ceiling, while we wait for it to fall and blanket us
Won’t you tell me again, how my heart’s in the right place, when it feels so lost, and my chest feels vacant.
So hang a sheet on me, to hide my loneliness, call me a ghost, because I am transparent
We’re lost in the walls of our ribs
Trying to find our way back
We’re wandering, like ghosts writing their wills.
Were we walking in circles (in circles)?
Dead and broken retracing all our steps
Were we meant to be hurtful (hurtful)?
Or spend our lives to replace the emptiness
That same ceiling is farther than I remember, and that makes me tremble
We’re lost in the walls of our ribs
Sadly staring at the marble floor where our bodies lay forgotten, even though everyone is there.
Won’t you tell me again, how my heart’s in the right place, when it feels so lost, and my chest feels vacant.
So hang a sheet on me, to hide my loneliness, call me a ghost, because we are transparent
Were we walking in circles (in circles)?
Dead and broken retracing all our steps
Were we meant to be hurtful (hurtful)?
Or spend our lives to replace the emptiness
