Keep me in the dark, just a little more...

Don’t you know that these ghosts won’t ever go away?

You can kiss his lips, breathe his lungs and she’ll still be

holding on to the deepest part of him.

Just try, she dares, just try to unclench my fist

around his heart and you’ll see:

It’ll fall apart when I do.

I’m what’s holding him together, she laughs, and you are

what’s pulling him apart.


All I want to do is hold his heart, so that should she ever unclench

even for a little bit, even for a second should she let go

he’ll fall safely in my hands. Oh the irony, because we all know

he’s really the one holding on to her. Oh the irony because we both know

that she’s not his ghost. She’s his shining light…

she’s my ghost and you’re leaving me in the dark.













I miss him.
