Ghosts

Under siege
What we’ve been for the last thirty years
You and us
Under judgement
As we all slipped down in a new dark age
You and us
How many secrets are buried with us
As we left our children no hope they can trust
I will not try to fix you
There is no chance I’ll miss you
It’s over, it’s over
Slowly you’ll drown
With your vain glory
Ghosts on the shores
Singing your story
It’s over, it’s over
And with no tears from my eyes
I’ll say goodbye
I’ll say goodbye
Skeletons in a closet, face to the wall,
overturn!
Dust to dust, as the ashes will testify your lack of self control
The waters will drag you along, the river will sing you a sad song
No one will pick your blame, no one will clear your name
It’s over, it’s over
Slowly you’ll drown
With your vain glory
Ghosts on the shores
Singing your story
It’s over, it’s over
And with no tears from my eyes
I’ll say goodbye
I’ll say goodbye
It’s over, it’s over
Slowly you’ll drown
Slowly you’ll drown
It’s over, it’s over
And with no tears from my eyes
I’ll say goodbye
