16.Your Ghost
Last night i looked for you
But, you could not be found
I felt your ghost in my room
Dancing all around
And i tried to talk to you
But, there was no reply
I sat up shaking in my bed
And then i cried
I can't explain it
There's so much i could say to you
And so much is left unsaid
And there's nothing i can do
Nothing i can do
I played your song last night
And drank down my last beer
'skyway' by westerberg
But, you weren't there to hear
And i thought i saw an angel
With you in the back
But, when they turned the lights down
Everything went black
I thought of your mom and dad
In your hometown
And your lovely sister
And it slowly brought me down
Only brought me down
I think of your sweet smile
And how perfectly it fit
To you the world was a cookie jar
And you had your hand in it
And i wish that i could take
All the guns in this sick place
And melt them into coins
And buy compassion for the human race
And i know it sounds cliche
But, i'm tired of this violence
And the view is much different
When your inside of the fence
And i'm on this side of this sick fence
Last night i looked for you
But, you could not be found
I felt your ghost in my room
Dancing all around
And i tried to talk to you
But, there was no reply
I sat up shaking in my bed
And then i cried
I sat up shaking in my bed
