I tried so hard, my unfortunate man, to live inside your dreams
But shadows lurk behind your eyes, like unspoken schemes
A ghost from memories you guard, locked tight apart
Why can’t I touch those hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
Another love with heavy scars, left footprints in your soul
I stand here paying for the past I never stole
Words cut sharp beneath the quiet, tearing us apart
Why can’t I break through those hesitant thoughts and calm your angry and mean heart?
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
That restless wall you built around, keeps tearing us apart
I reach through silent storms, trying to find a start
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
The nights grow colder when you shut me out
Locked in your fight, your doubts a cruel tide
Pulling me out of sight
I whisper truths you′re scared to hear
But still you dart
Why can’t I lift those hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
I see the cracks from old battles hidden deep within your eyes
I′m standing in the no man′s land where fear and hope collide
A fragile line between us drawn from miles apart
Why can’t I touch those hesitant thoughts
And soften your angry and mean heart?
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
That restless wall you built around, keeps tearing us apart
I reach through silent storms, trying to find a start
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
I′m calling out through the twilight where your shadows hide
Tracing cracks where your defenses start to slide
If love′s a road, I′m ready to drive through the dark
Why can’t you let go and ghost your angry and mean heart?
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
That restless wall you built around, keeps tearing us apart
I reach through silent storms, trying to find a start
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
So here I stand in worn boots, ready to begin
Still hoping to fade those hesitant thoughts within
So ghost your angry and mean heart
And find love′s spark
Why can’t I free your hesitant thoughts and ghost your angry and mean heart?
