Ghost Notes

So we doctored pictures Fudged the numbers Cooked the books All in the mighty name Of better looks I was on a fast train To an absence Where you were not Time was all it really took 'Cause these winters Even mild ones In the interim Make this seem unworkable But all of the ghost notes in between They visit me while I am sleeping Making their way in single file Down to the epicenter Of my healing mind My healing mind I shied from fire You ran through it How'd you do it? You got on free To the other side I'm a coward You're defiant in the firing line Look your doom right in the eyes 'Cause all these doors keep opening You walk through them And you're wondering What the hell I'm doing 'Cause I falter even in my mother tongue All of the ghost notes in between They visit me while I am sleeping Making their way in single file Down to the epicenter Of my crazy psyche damage And my healing mind
