For the last four years I've lived with your shadow over my head Your phantom has been tucked away But still the thought of your stirs inside my mind And I know there's nothing I can do to bring you back Or change the past But if I keep going on this way Dredging up the failures of what I once considered happiness This concept of myself wont last I need to give up your ghost Find a way home Break this mould Bring back what I need most A sense of shelter An escape from this cold And I never felt like I belonged to this earth But you're the one that was taken away And I wish you could stay I wish you'd have stayed But it was never meant to be More than a distant memory And I can't find sleep Without you in my mind
