Ghosts of the Past
Faded photos on the wall
Shadows growing in the hall
You’ve disappeared
In misty years
Each day is much the same
But now a phantom wears your name
Abandoned dreams
Where you used to be
What lies beneath
The surface of your fear?
You’re living as if
You were never really here
Do you lie awake
Knowing what’s at stake?
I don’t know what to say to you
While you’re waiting
All the years are slowly slipping
Through your grasp
Are you haunted
By what might’ve been?
You are living in the attic
With the ghosts of the past
Quit hiding in your doubts
Let courage draw you out
Into a new day
Please don’t delay
Your choices forge a chain
That grows in weight
But you hold the key
That would free you to escape
Unlock your mind
Come back to life
I don’t know what to say to you
While you’re waiting
All the years are slowly slipping
Through your grasp
Are you haunted
By what might’ve been?
You are living in the attic
With the ghosts of the past
Make a decision
Even something small
Dispel these apparitions
One change is better
Than nothing at all
I don’t know what to say to you
While you’re waiting
All the years are slipping
Through your grasp
Are you haunted
By what might’ve been?
You are living in the attic
With the ghosts of the past
