Ghosts Lyrics

Ghosts lyrics

If we give up before we ever fought

If we only do what we are told

And think we know it all, but never really learnt

If we turn the page before the page has turned



If we close doors, we never opened up

If we don't really start a thing before we stop

And never speak the truth although we do not lie

If we're full of plans but never dare to try...



Ghosts we are, made of flesh and bone

With empty minds and hearts of stone

The seed that was not meant to thrive

Existing but not really alive



Ghosts we are, though there's blood in our veins

Born free we chose to live in chains

Thought we were on our way, but in fact we weren't

So we burned out, before we ever burned...



If we take no risk, afraid that we might loose

And neverever make a choice, but let the others choose

If we don't love, afraid we won't be loved

If we long for touch but keep our fingers gloved



If we've got it good but even though feel bad

And should be happy but always feel sad

If we crash down before we tried to fly

Then we are dead so long before we die



Ghosts we are, made of flesh and bone

With empty minds and hearts of stone

The seed that was not meant to thrive

Existing but not really alive



Ghosts we are, though there' blood in our veins

Born free we chose to live in chains

Thought we were on our way, but in fact we weren't

So we burned out before we ever burned...
