[Verse 1]

Lie awake, keep your cold eyes closed

Feel it crawl up on your chest

Bare its teeth and steal your breath

Stay awake as it's creeping close

If you're brave enough you'll see

As it stares it looks a lot like me

It looks like me


[Chorus]

Though there's no way I will materialize

Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you

There's no way to apologize

Your selfish words must float denied like your crime

I float now, we rewind


[Verse 2]

Draw a line that cannot be crossed

Make a circle out of salt

Knowing it was all your fault

Hide inside, call your doting dogs

As their weak servility

Feeds your emptiness, remember me

In solitude you will sense me


[Chorus]

Though there's no way I will materialize

Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you

There's no way to apologize

Your selfish words must float denied like your crime

I float now, we rewind


[Bridge]

Forever feel it as it's gnawing

Forever crawling, ever crawling

Never caring always smiling

Here to feed when you are falling


[Chorus]

There's no way I will materialize

Let the ghost that meets your eyes still haunt you, remind you

There's no way, you can't apologize

Your selfish words must float denied like your crime

I float now, we rewind

We rewind

I float now, forever

You did this, we rewind
