Francisco Mejia - Haunted

Haunted inside the night
I'm not buttoned tight
I don't ever want to jump
For my life
Trailing the others
That swarm distant lights
The myth of tomorrow
Wants to be my guide

I just can't seize
The morning taken from me
And if only my sorrow
Befriends the spirits in me

Phantoms behind the cloak
Escape my hopes
I don't ever wander far
Past the smoke

I just stumble
Into debris and the rope
If I only disarm
Those roses taking a toll

I don't need to feel the sea
That leaves behind the stars
That long to burn
The cold in me

I lived under a different sun
One I couldn't outrun

But the words they fall
They burn they fly they know
To bleed the one
So in love with them

I swam beneath a different sea
One I couldn't outdream
Couldn't perceive

If the heavens
Don't quit delivering me
And this confession
Has no soul to redeem

I don't need to feel the sea
That leaves behind the stars
That long to burn
The cold in me

I lived under a different sun
One I couldn't outrun

But the words they fall
They burn they fly they know
To bleed the one
So in love with them

I swam beneath a different sea
One I couldn't outdream
Couldn't perceive

They never sigh
They never cry
They never sleep
They never dream

They never sigh
(They always had to break me down)
They never cry
(Darkness lost and never found)
They never sleep
(The pain always seemed profound)
They never dream
(And their song remains in clouds)
