Hungry Ghosts

from Forever Young by White Fields

about

This song is for my soulmate H.M.

lyrics

leave painful depth in empty vows
another song for the left alones
youth destructs to make them feel
one last thing in life that's real
novelles of the broken old
did not tell where this cancers from
another smoke another drink
another heart to make you sink

in all those times we've wasted love was dying our arms
love meant to teach me hope (still) I lost both in these old scars
hungry ghosts of memories that make the sould grow old
silently they keep asking you: why should life feel so cold?

I hold this pain inside of the left alones and the love they shared
of all which have hoped of all that have bared
of all which have loved they're the ones that have cared
I'm tired of just growing old with all my stories being left untold
I curse the world for treating me like this
I guess god slept on us or he just doesn't exist

I thought we'd quit to leave
now we leave to quit
we always quit

depression holds us down
winter's a curse for minds like these
all the nights when you all dream
we just deal with these old themes

and I'm glad that you made me see
what you've lost got lost to me
and us both we're down and out
never lead the life of the found

another written page
painfull depth in empty vows
love lies dying in our arms
this is another chapter closed
another night awake
writing the curse of the left alones
in endless letters to the old
not just another chapter told
