I'm a Ghost of Twilight

歌詞

Awake to the cracking of bones To the scratch in my throat Awake to every boy and girl Every heart that feels a swell It' all so lovely when you look at it just right It's also stabbing me to sleep Needles long into the night Suspended eventide can only mean one thing I'm a ghost of twilight Haunting neither night nor day With one foot treading sweet rapture And one foot in the grave Asleep to the creaks and the groans To the sounds of their sex Asleep to all the promises All the blessed days ahead I want so much to keep this precious thing from harm Then there's a part of me that wants to hold it lifeless in my arms 'Cause I got this chill in my bones And a warmth on my face Desperate for resolve They're closer every day The ghosts of twilight call So now I'm joining them I slept with faith and found a corpse in my arms on awakening I drank and danced all night with doubt And found her a virgin in the morning
