The apparition

You appear to me an apparition
That I long to hold
When you have me hanging
On every word
And mine holding to the tip of my tongue

So Ill marvel at the space that you create
And trace the lines when you leave

The silk of your skin it
Fades between my fingers and
This city is broken without you here
Its just such a shame
That you have to be selfish
Because your killing me

So Ill stand miles away from your loneliness
As you build...build your walls
Because my hands are too sore to fight anymore
Why wont you let me in?
Why won't you let me in?

The silk of your skin it
Fades between my fingers and
This city is broken without you here
Its just such a shame
That you have to be selfish
Because its killing me

So take all of your words and tear into me
And Ill become a ghost because it will bring
Me closer to you

It takes all of me just to keep on breathing
Ive tried to
Ive tried to forget about you
Ive tried
Ive tried
