In Another Life

I close my eyes, but I still see I'm hollow, a phantom, floating in between Until I fall asleep I'm fabricating my lucid dream I feel your presence, but you're out of reach Your silhouette's all around, it lives inside my head Am I awake or is this a dream? The lights flicker in the hall, and then you're gone again Nothing was ever the same And in another life I would've built up my walls around you, lived to hold you, yeah And in another life I could've carried us home To be what we wanted to Looming over me Your shadow hidеs behind every facе I see And I can't tell what is make believe I've tried pretending you're what I need This house is haunted, but it's part of me Your silhouette's all around, it lives inside my head Am I awake or is this a dream? The lights flicker in the hall, and then you're gone again Nothing was ever the same And in another life I would've built up my walls around you, lived to hold you, yeah And in another life I could've carried us home To be what we wanted to All I can see, all I have known are memories Can feel the hole in my heart Still chasing ghosts in the dark All I can say, all I have known just fades away Wish I could be where you are Never thought I'd end up so far Dead to me Tear down the pieces of what remains You'll never go away When the walls are caving (When the walls are caving) I'll bury your name (Bury your name, bury your name) And erase all my memories Your silhouette's not around, it lived inside my head The lights flicker in the hall, but they won't shine again Dead to me
