Ghosts
tonight, tonight 
 is almost over
 tonight, tonight, tonight will never end
 that constant pressure 
 never relenting, everlasting
 your words are suffocating me tonight
 all i know is i can’t sleep
 tossing and turning
 and i would do anything, anything
 for you
 but i don’t know why you
 do the things you do
 if you take me seriously
 then you obviously don’t
 know me very well
 living on the edge of breaking down
 how long can i walk this rope with you?
 i lie to myself and to the world
 and i can’t bear to take it,
 take it anymore
 hearts aren’t like rules –
 they’re not meant to be broken
 i’m freezing, i’m shaking now
 i wish tonight would end
 because i won’t have courage to face tomorrow
 until the sun explodes outside my window pane
 as the seconds go by i am getting
 angry and weak - two things very new to me
 but tonight will never end
 it will stow away in the corner of my heart
 where all the hurtful things
 haunt me tonight
