lyrics

(lose your ghost and keep your head)

a writer drunk on all his thoughts
gave me everything i lost

so don't become the bitter man
that stumbles down the tracks
his tired eyes aren't looking back

sure those kids, they love the words
but they dont live by them
the smoke and rhymes are chapters
of a fallacy we wrote and gave away

a poet emptying her rounds
made us think that we were flying
but we just got tangled in the lines
that night we lost our fucking minds

so lose your ghost and
keep your head from crashing in the clouds
colors descend and reach the ground

in basements we all dream and wait
for the walls to weaken
the smoke and rhymes are chapters
of a fallacy we wrote and gave away

on bitter nights we search for romance
in the eyes that aren't looking back
we're not looking back
but we can't even reach the tracks
