Ghosts & Graves

She left the room like a ghost
And vanished into thin air
Though he tried and he tried
To find her alive
But the truth was
She wasn’t there

So he drank himself till he died
Just hoping that he’d see her again
And he tried to find a way
But the bottle wouldn’t sway
From his heart into the grave

He said I'm in a bad spot
But I’ve been in worse
I’ve been sleeping with these secrets
All of my life until they’ve been
Burned in the back of my mind
Like the palms of my hands
They hurt oh they hurt

So he wanders alone in the night
To the place where they first met
Well a madman goes insane
When the bottle hits the brain
'Cause that’s the truth
That you don’t forget

He said I'm in a bad spot
But I’ve been in worse
I’ve been sleeping with these secrets
All of my life until they’ve been
Burned in the back of my mind
Like the palms of my hands
They hurt oh they hurt

Well she left the room like a ghost
And vanished into thin air
