Sleepwalker - Ghost Heart

Laying in my bedroom once again

Rubbing my eyes to relieve the strain

The light illuminates my face

As the screen casts shadows on the wall

Once again I’m drawn back to that place

Where everything seems fine

I shouldn’t have shut you out

Now all I want is to see you

And to hear your voice again

I haven’t seen the sun in so long

I’ve forgotten what it’s like to feel warm

The only light I see

Is this lonely screen that lulls me to sleep

I keep expecting it to take away these feelings

But it never does a single dose of healing

And if I’m meant to be a shell

Then why do I have this soul in the first place?

Waking up is hard for me now

(Where am I going? Where have I been?)

I can’t pick myself up off the ground

(What are these feelings that I don’t understand?)

And I’ve been waiting

And praying

(For your hands to pick me up again.)

But waking up is hard for me now

You told me that it’s alright

And all will be well if I can focus and clear my mind

But I just can’t do this anymore

I’ll suffer so you don’t have to

Isn’t that what love is for?

Waking up is hard for me now

(Where am I going? Where have I been?)

I can’t pick myself up off the ground

(What are these feelings that I don’t understand?)

And I’ve been waiting

And praying

(For your hands to pick me up again.)

But waking up is hard for me now

This is not where I want to be

So I’m going to keep on fighting

But I’m stuck between the nightmares

And a waking isolation

Waking up is hard for me now

(Where am I going? Where have I been?)

I can’t pick myself up off the ground

(What are these feelings that I don’t understand?)

And I’ve been waiting

And praying

(For your hands to pick me up again.)

But waking up is hard for me now

I’ve been so shattered

And I don’t want you to watch me bleed

If I can’t fix myself

How can I be what you need?
