Album: Mortal Ghost

Verse 1
Why, why should I even try?
When you and I were born to die
If there really is a Hell
Then most of them remain there still
I was never good with words
But you knew that and you heard
Shrieks call from inside the drawer
Just a peek
No one knows how it goes behind closed doors

You alone
Are more than I've ever known
But now it's time to find out for my own

Chorus
Still, all the world it confounds me
Birds are singing in the sun and
Buds always come back to blossom
And what about the stories that they told me?
Could they have really happened
And then who is it that's behind them?
Something always answers when I call again
And someone always catches when I fall away

Verse 2
Why can't I just go to sleep
And wake up like it's all a dream?
But maybe if I take one peek
Then I can set my mind at ease
And know for sure that it's not real
Put to rest the fear I feel
And I can forget about this whole thing

Tonight it's just you and me
Let's make an evening out of it
Get past all the make-believe
Find out if you're counterfeit
We've both got nothing to hide
But we've got everything to prove
One day we're all gonna die
So what have you got to lose?

Chorus
Still, all the world it confounds me
Birds are singing in the sun and
Buds always come back to blossom
And what about the stories that they told me?
Could they have really happened
And then who is it that's behind them?

Now I know what they all knew
And I can feel your spirit move
I know someone came to save me from all
All my sins
Yeah!
