Living With a Ghost
Adventurer Lyrics

Let's start something we'll forget about tomorrow
We're about to do something without really thinking it through, knowing we'll regret it later and pretend it didn't happen.

Everything that we've built, let it go
We need to abandon whatever we've constructed so far and move on.

LET IT GO!
We need to let go of whatever it is that we're holding on to so tightly; a sense of closure is imperative.

We got carried away, we got carried away
Things might seem completely out of hand, but we're partly responsible for getting ourselves into this mess.

I had a dream last night
I had a dream that is still on my mind.

You said you lost your mind
You've lost your grip on reality, unable to think or act logically.

Woke up an hour ago
I woke up quite recently.

Sand pouring down my throat
I'm feeling helpless and suffocating, as if sand is being poured down my throat

And now I'm running away
I'm trying to escape from all this mess by running away.

Thinking about everything (THE PAST IS THE PAST, WHAT'S DONE IS DONE)
I'm reflecting on everything that happened, and realizing that some things are just beyond repair, hence, we need to move on.

And if think your gonna find me then you're wrong
If you believe you'll find me and make everything right, you're mistaken, and it's not possible anymore.

(YOUR FACE WAS A MASK, IT FOOLED ME ONCE)
Your true intentions were hidden behind a mask, and I was fooled by your facade once.

Cause I know how you do
I'm aware of how you function.

To think that we could apologize
To think that an apology would suffice is naive.

But we're better off just dead
It might be better if we just end things altogether.

Maybe we could break into my mind
Perhaps I need to delve deep within myself and re-evaluate everything.

And erase all my wasted time
Let go of all the wasted time and start afresh.

Oh baby why cant you see
Why can't you understand my perspective?

You were a part of me
You were an essential part of me, and it's hard to cope without you.

I'm talking can you hear me
Are you actually listening to what I'm saying?

Am I speaking clearly
Is my message coming across clearly?

My words are so sarcastic
The words I'm using are laced with sarcastic undertones.

I'm feeling quite fantastic
I'm feeling good and upbeat.

Pressed up to the back door
I'm standing close to the back door.

Can you feel the pressure
Can you sense the intensity of the situation?

I'm screaming for the record
I'm making myself heard, for the record.

And I never would have suspected you
I never thought you would be capable of doing these things.

I'm so tired of "She's not alone" cause
I'm tired of hearing people say 'She's not alone' when, in actuality, she's surrounded by people with conflicting opinions.

She's lost within the opinions of everyone
She's lost in the crowd, unable to establish her own opinion, and bound by conflicting ones.

There's nothing wrong
There's nothing particularly wrong or unusual, everything is just the same as it ever was.

And our lives go on and on and on
Our lives go on forever, with or without each other.

These words that I scream so carelessly
These words that I shout so impulsively, without much consideration.

Reflect a time when I felt some clarity
It's a reflection of a time when I was less confused and more clear-headed.

Slowing down time is as pointless as breathing
It's difficult, nearly impossible, trying to slow down time, just like it's impossible to stop breathing.

Fresh air in your lungs is dangerous to breath in
Even fresh air can be harmful to the lungs.

This isn't what it seems
Everything is not what it appears to be.

Running from all my dreams
I'm fleeing from everything that I've ever dreamed of or worked towards.

Is this reality, or am I falling down
I can't establish if this is reality, or if I am falling apart.

They say that some people never learn
It's a popular phrase that is often used to convey disappointment in oneself or others.

Yeah I still want to watch you burn
I still want to witness you at your worst, even though I should've moved on a long time ago.

Watch you burn, watch you burn
I want to see you suffer immensely.

I need to be fixed where I'm broke
I need to fix myself where I'm broken.

The cracks just keep growing from the things that you spoke
The damage just keeps intensifying from everything you say.

I think it's better not knowing of all that you did
It's better not to know about all the mistakes you've committed.

What I treasured most
What I cherished and valued above all else.

I will learn to forget I was living with a ghost
I will try to forget that I was living with a painful memory of someone I can no longer be with.

I fell down across the room
I stumbled and fell across the floor.

I'm still breathing and dreaming of you
I still think about you and breathe the same air, even though we're not together.

What does this come to and who will I be?
I'm lost and unsure of where I'm headed, and who I will ultimately become.

Don't you know you're a part of me
Don't you know that you matter to me, and we will always be a part of each other?

You were a part of me
You were a vital part of my life, and you will always be a part of my story.
