back to the ghosts.
I once roamed with the living
But now I'm back with the dead
The ghosts welcomed me back
Where I lay my weary head

They gave me the chance to love
In the realm of the living
But I never found what I sought
And now I'm back, unforgiving

I longed for a touch of warmth
A love to call my own
But instead, I found only pain
And now I'm all alone

So back to the ghosts I go
To find solace in their embrace
For the living world let me down
And I can't bear to face

The empty void within my heart
That no love could ever fill
So I'll dwell among the ghosts
Where I'll remain, cold and still.
