AMONG SPIRITS

Where I’m going

Where I’m going you can’t follow

If I pay heed to my inner conscience

You keep calling

But your pleas are ringing hollow

And I have no time for all this nonsense

Among spirits

I’ve chosen to spend my tomorrows

And I know whatever will be, will be

For a moment

I’ve been rid of all my sorrows

Of the weight of promises long broken

One day you’ll wake up to remember

I was never your contender

And I’ll be no more than a murmur

When I’m gone for good

Who dares to live a dream so unreal?

Where I’m going

I’ll be sure to take my cross to bear

Like Jesus Christ, I couldn’t rise without it

From the ruins

That your misery reduced me to

Tossed around without a care

While you said you loved me

The bruise I hid from myself

Found me stumbling blindfold, fumbling for solace

Or the medicine to stop this sadness

It hurts to know I just kept

Falling for the hands that time and time again

Would stretch my wounds and tear me open

One day you’ll wake up to remember

I was never your contender

And I’ll be no more than a murmur

Living among spirits, living among spirits

The shaky flower you once knew is walking among spirits

Now I'm living among spirits, among spirits

One day you’ll wake up to remember

I was never your contender

And I’ll be no more than a murmur

When I’m gone for good

Who dares to live like this?
