Ghost

When the day is done and night descends
The shadows surround me, my only friends
The dark, the light, they look the same to me
There's only power, but you don't agree

Look me in the eye, tell me I'm a monster
Put your hand in mine, say that I'm a goner
What would I give for you to call my name

This isn't what I wanted
The walls scream your name
I'm haunted
By the memories that you went and tossed away
Yet you say that I'm the one to blame?

Look me in the eye, say the reason why you left
Was I not enough?
Was it too tough to love me?

I still feel the ghosts of your embrace
In your bed there's empty space
No one can replace

I remember all those years ago
You were the shining star crushing me below
Now things are different, but I stand alone
Maybe I would have left if I had known

Look me in the eye, tell me I'm a monster
Put your hand in mine, say that I'm a goner
What would I give for you to call my name

This isn't what I wanted
The walls scream your name
I'm haunted
By the memories that you went and tossed away
Yet you say, that I'm the one to blame?

Look me in the eye, say the reason why you left
Was I not enough?
Was it too tough to love me?

I still feel the ghosts of your embrace
In your bed there's empty space
No one can replace

You shined so bright, you didn't see me in the dark
You held my hand, but you didn't understand
I was content being your right-hand man

Who took the fall when you left?
Who stayed behind with all the rest?
Now that you're gone
I am the best

Look me in the eye
