The heart is a haunted home Shadows and basement ghosts Windows and dead phones Piled into closets like altars to love The holes in the ceiling grow From life's unrelenting storm The hurricane sadness That rips through your body Leaving you breathless Numbing the sunshine Clouding your senses Creeping in softly Beneath our defenses Haunting the houses We build from the wreckage The beat of black wings in the distance Your voice reverses I hear it in the wind My arms bend backwards I feel you turning I feel you turning Past lives unfolding Through palm reader clues Crawling through mud Dragging Horoscope blues Mercury slipping The phase of the moon The bed is an altar Reborn in the vision of you Happiness Happiness, together I'll share your ghost When the golden hour ends When the heavens stop to spin When our summer sun sets west I'll share your ghost
