The Ghost in Me

from Waails by Anthony and the Mountain

/

lyrics

home
in pieces and sighs
pacing rooms
leads softer bones
to shrivel up and die

and insect twitching
kick to start
draw a map to a dying star
cover my eyes and set me free
i'm leaving a trail of kerosene

into the light
the breathe i've held so long
lives to see another sun
i've got no crown upon my head
i've got no crown upon my head
just this pressure in my lungs

i rehearsed again
i rehearsed again
exhale and the fallout will expand
until we're ashes
run your fingers along the cracks
i've found no way to put them back
there is no magic, no chemistry
gravity release the ghost in me

into the light
the breathe i've held so long
lives to see another sun
i've got no crown upon my head
i've got no crown upon my head
just this pressure in my lungs
