The place
it's eating me
it chews me playfully

It's her again
I wave theatrically
I should have taken leave

We are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
a subliminal phantasy
we are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
almost

The syren sings
it's almost over now 
my ship is about to wreck 

I smell her scent 
There's no ignoring her
she smiles and turns her back

We are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
a subliminal phantasy
we are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
almost

She walks in so graciously 
and reads me like a book 
she reminds me of
the chances that I never took
she looks like she understands
she talks like she knows
How these things go 

We are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
a subliminal phantasy
we are ghosts
singing a melody
we are ghosts
almost 

We are ghosts
We are ghosts
