Ghost behind your Eyes

~Everybody has a ghost of their former self living inside them~

I've seen the ghost behind your eyes..
It tells me stories of sorrow and heartache.
How you've been broken so many times,
I'll never be able to piece you fully back together.

I've seen the ghost behind your eyes.
It shows me images, of the perfect life we'll never have.
It tells me that I am too late, and you will never be truly happy.

I see the ghost behind your eyes..
And I hear him in your voice.
A sound so sweet, I hang on every word.

He throws me into such a jealous fit of rage..
Because the one thing I want, will never be mine.

Why do you look at me this way?
I see the ghost in your eyes.
A piece of your former self..

You lead me into a false sense of security.
I fall for it time and time again.
I walk through this life, but in a dream realm
An imaginary state where you and I are free.. and perfect.
