Haunted

Come here…
Pretty please?
Can you tell me where I am?
You…won’t you say something?
I need to get my bearings…
I’m lost…and the shadows keep on changing

And I’m haunted
By the lives that I have loved
And actions I have hated
I’m haunted
By the lives that wove the web
Inside my haunted head

Don’t cry,
There’s always a way
Here in November in this house of leaves we’ll pray.
Please, I know it’s hard to believe
To see a perfect forest through so many splintered trees
You and me…and these shadows keep on changing…

And I’m haunted
By the lives that I have loved
And actions I have hated
I’m haunted
By the promises I’ve made
And others I have broken
I’m haunted
By the lives that wove the web
Inside my haunted head

Always… always…
I’ll always want you…
I’ll always need you…
I’ll always love you…
And I will always miss you…

Come here…
No I won’t say please.
One more look at the ghost
Before I’m gonna make it leave.
Come here…
I’ve got the pieces here
Time to gather up the splinters
And build a casket for my tears
I’m haunted
By the lives that I have loved
I’m haunted
By the promises I’ve made
I’m haunted
By the hallways in this tiny room
The echos there of me and you
The voices that are carrying this tune…
