Ghosts
The ghosts of the past are always with me, That is what I hear
Lurking, waiting, knowing the right moment, I fall prey
Coming to set my world on fire yet again and it’s blazing
I do not hate them, I do not blame them, Anger all consuming
It is me I blame, Is that why ghosts, the nightmare of pain
Why can’t I let go, understanding nothing, thoughts of death enter my mind
Bowing before God, Asking for forgiveness, I know he is there
I missed the answer or just did not listen, He doesn’t come for me
Maybe God blames me too but, he was there, still no answers come
He seen what happened did he cry, Did he blame, was it his fault
He died for me, Why I am not worth it, I am dirt forever banished
How could he love me, after all I have done
