Ghosts of the Past

George Moshington


devils sing my song - i've been gone so long 
dead inside - seeing sights unseen 
now no other way - it's life and death 
velvet and black - fight my way back 
it's all the same - it's just a game 
knife in my back - abrasive and red 
hear what i said - 'cause i've been alive 
and i've been dead 
you don't know how far you've gone 
until you've left something behind 
i've cut my throat - slit my wrists 
and sold my soul one thousand times 
pointless ambition - no resolution to my severed ties 
lost in the madness - and wiped tears of blood 
from these crimson eyes 
is it my destiny to rot alone with these 
GHOSTS OF THE PAST 
thoughts locked away - now dull impressions 
we've gone so far so fast - the memories outlast 
father time, if you can't heal my wounds 
please stop the bleeding
