Burning Without Breath
I can see
you...
But you can't see
me...
I'm standing in the silence Of who I used to be.
There's a crack in the mirror,
But no one standing there.
I can feel the cold of winter,
Pictures on the staircase,
My name beneath the dust.
Everybody's moving on, But I'm frozen where I was.
I try to reach the sunlight,
I'm caught between forever
And a world I understand.
And I'm calling through the silence,
But my words just disappear.
I'm a thousand miles from living,
Yet I'm standing right here.
Can you hear me
now?
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?!
I'M A GHOST IN THE MIDNIGHT!
A FIGURE IN THE HEADLIGHTS!
I'M SCREAMING AT THE SKY,
BUT I'M NEVER COMING BACK TO LIFE!
I'M A SPARK IN THE DARKNESS!
A FIRE WITHOUT A HEARTBEAT!
YOU CAN BURY MY NAME,
BUT YOU CAN'T ERASE MY MEMORY!
(oh-oh-oh) I'm fading away!
(oh-oh-oh) but I still remain!
I'M A GHOST! BUT I'M NOT GONE!
I watch the landscape breathing,
See the headlights passing by.
Everybody's chasing something,
While I'm trapped outside of time.
I dance beneath the streetlights,
Where we used to sing along.
And for a second,
I remember
What it felt like to belong.
I'm the trace of a heartbeat
That the world forgot to name.
I can feel the thunder rising,
Like a storm beneath my skin.
If the world won't let me back,
Then I'll make the darkness listen!
Can you hear me now?
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?!
I'M A GHOST IN THE MIDNIGHT!
A FIGURE IN THE HEADLIGHTS!
I'M SCREAMING AT THE SKY,
BUT I'M NEVER COMING BACK TO LIFE!
I'M A SPARK IN THE DARKNESS!
A FIRE WITHOUT A HEARTBEAT!
YOU CAN BURY MY NAME,
BUT YOU CAN'T ERASE MY MEMORY!
(oh-oh-oh) I'm fading away!
(oh-oh-oh) but I still remain!
I'M A GHOST! BUT I'M NOT GONE!
If I could have one more morning,
One more chance to feel the sun,
Would I tell you that I'm sorry?
Would I tell you you're the one?
But the sky is turning crimson...
I'M DONE BEING INVISIBLE!
TONIGHT I'M COMING ALIVE!
I'M A GHOST IN THE MIDNIGHT!
A FIGURE IN THE HEADLIGHTS!
I'M SCREAMING AT THE SKY,
AND I'M LIGHTING UP THE AFTERLIFE!
I'M A STORM IN THE DARKNESS!
A VOICE YOU CAN'T FORGET!
YOU CAN SAY THAT I'M GONE,
BUT I'M NOT FINISHED YET!
(oh-oh-oh) I'm breaking away!
(oh-oh-oh) you'll remember my name!
I'M A GHOST! BUT I'M NOT GONE!
Maybe I'm
just a memory... Maybe
I'm just a dream...
But when the lights go out...
You'll remember me.
