The Ghost That Haunted Me

I was a block of ice in the summer heat
Stress got more than the best of me
Felt lost and I like I had lost something

I was killing myself thinking way too hard
About wind in my wings, and a brand new start
Had to pull it all together

Time only moves forward
You can't hide the sun or make those shadows shorter
Time only moves forward
So why waste it on the rain clouds and the days you'd forget if you could?

So I broke the bonds that confined me
Stood ready to face it finally
Bring back to life the ghost that haunted me

I almost lost it all
Hit the pavement hard
But I'm stronger now, and my guitar keeps me standing

No more sculpting statues out of past regrets
From here on out it's progress

Time only moves forward
You can't hide the sun or make those shadows shorter
Time only moves forward
So why waste it on the bad days?
