lyrics

“The Ghost Factory” by Potion Cafe

I’m sick of waking up in dreams,
while every waking hour is spent asleep
in fear I’ll find we’re beyond repair and faulty by design.
While we’re here not of our own accord, it’s irrelevant.

So let it out.
With every cautious exhalation, we are closer to the end.
So let it out.
Let out everything that you’ve held in.

To you, have I become a ghost?
Do you run, in fear you’ll be exposed?
You’ve cut much more than communication.
This night won’t end until you sleep.
The sides of you I haven’t seen
will haunt my dreams.

So let it out.
With every cautious exhalation, we are closer to the end.
So let it out.
Let out everything that you’ve held in.

Would you read my will?
Skip to the very last line.
The words that I’ve instilled
in this heart I’ve redefined.

Would you read my will?
Skip to the very last line.
I’m not your recreant doll.
I am faulty by design.

And it read, “I loved you.”
We all die with nothing.

Would you read my will?
Skip to the very last line.
Will you shout for me, with all your heart?

Will you let it out?
With every cautious exhalation, we are closer to the end.
So let it out.
Let out everything that you’ve held in.
