These Ghosts
Ghosts of Regret: Embracing Solitude in the Flames
Lyrics
I know you're wondering
I acknowledge your curiosity
What it is that I'm gonna do
Uncertain about my future actions
I didn't deserve it
I believe I didn't merit the situation
I guess karma's finally found her way to you
Karma has eventually caught up with you
I've been wrong a thousand times
I've made numerous mistakes
But I swear that I know when I'm right
I assert that I can discern when I'm correct
Living on your selfish pride
Living with excessive self-centeredness
Close your eyes, light a match, and be gone
Close your eyes, ignite a match, and depart
Cities are burning now
Cities are ablaze
Don't you know?
Are you aware?
Yeah don't you know
Indeed, do you realize?
Fire's taken over now
Fire has seized control
All alone, you're all alone
Isolated, you're entirely alone
Save me from myself, yeah
Rescue me from my own shortcomings
I am better on my own
I thrive when I'm solitary
I don't do too well, yeah I don't do too well
I struggle, I don't fare well
With your ghost
Haunted by your lingering presence
Leaving me sideways
Leaving me in a precarious situation
Guess you got what you wanted, didn't you dear?
You've achieved what you desired, haven't you?
Even with that strange man
Even in the company of a mysterious man
When you walked out, the whole room cleared
As you departed, the entire room emptied
I've been wrong a thousand times
I've made numerous mistakes
But I swear that I know when I'm right
I assert that I can discern when I'm correct
Living on your selfish pride
Living with excessive self-centeredness
Close your eyes, light a match, and be gone
Close your eyes, ignite a match, and depart
Cities are burning now
Cities are ablaze
Don't you know?
Are you aware?
Yeah don't you know
Indeed, do you realize?
Fire's taken over now
Fire has seized control
All alone, you're all alone
Isolated, you're entirely alone
Save me from myself, yeah
Rescue me from my own shortcomings
I am better on my own
I thrive when I'm solitary
I don't do too well, yeah I don't do too well
I struggle, I don't fare well
With your ghost
Haunted by your lingering presence
Yeah I don't do too well
I struggle, I don't fare well
I don't do too well
I don't fare well
Cities are burning now
Cities are ablaze
Don't you know?
Are you aware?
Yeah don't you know
Indeed, do you realize?
Fire's taken over now
Fire has seized control
All alone, you're all alone
Isolated, you're entirely alone
Save me from myself, yeah
Rescue me from my own shortcomings
I am better on my own
I thrive when I'm solitary
I don't do too well, yeah I don't do too well
I struggle, I don't fare well
With your ghost
Haunted by your lingering presence
