How can you mourn a ghost?
We'll find out, I suppose, soon
it's the ones I forget I once loved the most
Will they haunt me by the light of the moon?
We leave each other
family, friend, lover
gone like mist in sunlight
and when we meet another
we pretend the end is out of sight
even though with iron hearts
we're just waiting to see who leaves first
so enjoy the sweet parts
together, knowing your connection is cursed...
Unless a miracle strikes you
and you find someone who you can't quite let go of-
then you'll have to pray they stay true
and don't run away, like you always used to do,
rosarie-rubbing fingertips
gripping so hard they turn blue
"oh god, don't let them stop loving me
untill I stop loving them too."
