Ghost of Nothing

Treading waters poisoned by timeless intoxicants Always knowing that a darkness will find us Scaling walls of imagined boundaries We are the reapers of shame, the successors of pain I could follow you down To the bottom of your solemn state Straining to pull you out Of the trenches that your mind creates Hesitation sits in hindsight of the blind man Cut me open Won't you follow tonight, just breathe in slowly I don't wanna see you suffer forever, forever You are seemingly safe and sound But you carry such a heavy weight A spirit that slowly drowns But the body doesn't translate Bolstering the need to feel accomplished Overshadowed by decisions of finite progress A moment to take my time To let the noise subside Maybe I can finally breathe if I take a step outside myself Maybe I can finally breathe easy Cut me a box to size, yeah Won't you follow tonight, just breathe in slowly I don't wanna see you suffer forever, forever Plagued by thoughts of self-defeat Ghost of nothing A ghost of a nothing An anchor for all suffering Won't you follow tonight I don't wanna see you suffer Won't you follow tonight, just breathe in slowly I don't wanna see you suffer, suffer forever, forever Won't you follow tonight, just breathe in slowly I don't wanna see you suffer, suffer forever, forever I don't wanna see you A ghost of a nothing An anchor for all suffering --- Ghost Of Nothing - Erra
