Ghosts

Of failures of the past

Haunting

Trying to paralyze me

To put my feet in shackles

Grab me with their filthy hands

And clothe me in heavy, rusty chains

I won’t let them set my course

Determine my next steps

I lift up my head

To face the wind

When the devil is shouting in my ear

I will listen to the still small voice

That knows better

I won’t let the demons of the past

Determine my next steps

Come down to the shore

Of the sea of forgetfulness

Throw in the ghosts

And watch them sink

Into oblivion

We gotta learn from our past

But let it be past

Let the dead bury the dead

And let the living live

Live and breathe freely

Freely from what once was

Come down to the shore

Of the sea of forgetfulness

Throw in the ghosts

And watch them sink

Into oblivion
