lyrics

As the wind drives the smoke
As the wax melts before the fire
As the moon turns the sea
Sacred heart, have mercy
Somehow the earth still turns
We planted weeds, I reap the returns

Dear departed won't you set me free?
You left me so why can't you leave me be?

A forgotten photograph
A long stray hair
A message scribbled in a book
You're not here but you're still there
You turned your back and went on your way
So why do you still hold me in your sway

Dear departed won't you set me free?
You left me so why can't you leave me be?

So cold. It burns to my soul.
Truth be told, I've never felt so old.

We used to make love in this unmade bed
Your voice still echoes, secrets in my head
Warm blood turns to ice
You made your choice I paid the price

Dear departed won't you let me go?
You left me so why can't you leave me alone?

It's so cold. It burns me to my soul.
Truth be told, I've never been so low.

Truth to tell, it's not my soul to sell.
There's a hole in my head where the ghosts get in.
Maybe another would let them out again.
Maybe I'll just fade away. Here tomorrow, gone today.

Get out of my dreams and out of my head.
