Dark early nights, wandering in a silent saloon
Heartbeats echo where love can't be shown
Saw yourself darting away from my grasp
Fingers touch the air, clutching at the past
Candles flicker, ghosts in an empty room
In veins a whisper, a curse in the gloom
Eyes shut, tight dream of what could have been
There's a cruel phantom, won't let me win
Unacquired, the saddles are denied
Love's a cruel phantom, won't let me win
Bleeding out, jeans in a half-lit light
Fragile on its seat, lost my breath tonight
Tears fall, headed beneath the faded moonlight
Songs we never sang, carved in my mind
Memories linger love I cannot find
Walk these streets, lost in your illusive trace
Your voice, a haunting in this hollow place
Screams, silence, like constant companion
Hopes dashed, dreams, burned in like a canyon
Begging for mercy, but lost every breath I had
of fear Crying for you where can't be here
Unrequited love, stings like a knife A eaten out dreams in a half-lived life
Fragile army in sewers, bloodbath tonight Tears far ahead beneath the faded moonlight
