Sleeping With Ghosts

I clutch your arm around me

holding me together

My eyes clenched tight

can't bear any light

'cause you won't hold up to it

Your touch is already insubstantial

because you're not there

Maybe you were never there

I'm sleeping with a ghost

I'm not alone

You're here with me

I'm not alone

You're right there

Hold me together

I'm not alone

I won't move

I'll stay right here

Clinging to your memory

Clinging to the dark

Clinging to you

Sleeping with your ghost

When I open my eyes

Will you have ever been here at all?

I'm not alone

I won't open my eyes

Don't leave me

Just hold me

Don't be a memory

I'm not lonely

I'm not alone

I can smell you

I can't

I can't just be sleeping with ghosts
