Ghosts Of Memory

A place of rest I've tried to find

Aching in my heart, chaos in my mind

This place is poison to my soul

Can't take much more, I'm losing control

Faded perfume in a room

Once a sanctuary, now simply a tomb

And it is in this tomb I lie

Dried flowers pressed in pages of faded romance died

And I'm haunted by ghosts of memory

Taunted by promises

What could have been?

Haunted, by ghosts of memory

Taunted by promises

Please set me free

Roses blooming in hellfire

Prisoner of the past and my heart's dark desire

Phantom love that still holds on

My dreams do not remember, that you are gone

Just like the melting snow in spring

It couldn't last, that's true of many things

In the emerald sea I'll lie

Dried flowers pressed in pages of faded romance died
