Boy and the Ghost

The streets are empty

Inside it's warm

His hands are shaking

They locked the door

A voice is calling asking to get in

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a gentle heart

To lead him through the dark

When his dreams are running wild

Boy and the ghost

Fire's not burning

The lights went out

The lights went out

Big family dinner

The untold pain

Their eyes are sparkling on his frozen face

Angel's calling asking to get in

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a gentle heart

To lead him through the dark

When there's nowhere left to fall

Boy and the ghost

His eyes are burning

The lights went out

The dream is on

Wake up, wake up

There's an angel in the snow

Look up, look up

It's a frightened dead boy

With so much hate, such bad dreams

He could have seen (could have seen)

The toy's the key (toy's the key)

But no one saw (no one saw)

No one saw

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a bleeding heart

To lead him through the dark

Boy and the ghost

When there's nowhere left to fall

Nowhere to hide

The silence is hurting

Inside it's cold

Sleep or die

Nowhere to go

Nowhere to hide

His light went out
