Your face, a buried memory. Your voice, a distant sound.
I left you miles behind while you were sleeping underground.
Have you woken, to find yourself alone?
Have you spoken, hoping that your words would find their way home?
And I'm haunted - in the middle of the night
And I'm haunted - by the things I didn't do
And I'm haunted - 'cause I didn't leave it right
And I'm haunted - by you
Your life was filled with misery, though you found your ways to hide it by and by.
We were the best of friends, agreed there was no need to see eye to eye.
How we'd drown are sorrows and laugh at the way the world works.
I'd never felt so alone, the day they lowered you in the earth
And I'm haunted - in the middle of a dream
And I'm haunted - out of the blue
And I'm haunted - by the visions that I've seen
And I'm haunted - by you
You looked so hard for freedom and embraced it when you could.
Doing anything to defeat your boredom, even if it didn't do you any good.
You chipped away at yourself, beneath your armor, glowing in the sun.
You were a holy one, destined to become forever young
Still I'm haunted - by the words we never spoke
And I'm haunted - by the silence, deep and true
And I'm haunted - by some long forgotten hope
And I'm haunted - by you
