How's it going, we ain't had a chance to really talk
It's been a while, maybe we should go and take a walk
Like Ebenezer and tell me everything you saw
You need to answer damn door next time it knocks
Cause opportunity's not waiting around
For you to get your shit together, out the lost and found
Waves are coming in strong, for you to ride or drown
And it really doesn't give a shit, which one so now
That you know it's up to you, it's time to make a decision
And it really doesn't matter what you say cause it isn't
About the words that you use, it's about the actions you give it
And if you're preaching while you're sleeping you may as well just forget it
Until it haunts you, and eats you away
Then everyday inside your mind so much you wanted to say
But you'll never get the chance unless you make some changes
Can't be part of your heart but still act like strangers
Memories haunt you, there's nowhere to go
Run away and they'll follow you home
Consequences that you'll never know
Close your eyes now, are you seeing ghosts
Present is never 20/20 and we
Are always looking at the past trying to clearly see
But from moment to moment we're always looking to be
The one that never messes up, unrealistically
So much so that things are happening now
That you haven't even noticed the world burning around
I'm trying to wake you, before you have to look at the ground
And see the piles of ashes 'til it brings you down
That's where it's headed as we walk this road
Taking a peak at the future, into these small windows
But God ain't walking the f*cking Earth, so how do we know
Most of the shit we don't, the rest history shows
I don't know if I'm too late, I don't hear any knocking
You need to open your eyes and run, no more walking
It's time to drop it, Let It Go, maybe change the topic
But I'm just watching this ship sink, and trying to stop it
Memories haunt you, there's nowhere to go
Run away and they'll follow you home
Consequences that you'll never know
Close your eyes now, are you seeing ghosts
As I walk through the smoke of mistakes I've made
Piecing together a puzzle of all the words and ways
All the hurt and pain, I'll be the first to say
You got my back and I'm here for whatever price is paid
What I want and what I need seem to be the same
What I need and what I'm doing are still worlds away
I feel it, cause I'm still alive in the same boat
And every line I've ever thought is eating my brain slow
I don't know what you don't see, they need you
And all those times you think you're hurting, they bleed too
It's double-sided tape, you're stuck, I believe you
Know the choice is clear as day, pretty much f*cking see through
Don't put it beneath you, it's f*cking with me too
And no one knows about what we go through like we do
And when I'm drowning and gasping for air, I breathe through
The hope that I did what I should've, we grew
The same time, the same space, a different place
Rushing through the things that we're told, just like a foot race
Open the gates, I'm on my f*cking way, I'm on pace
To get this shit on track, tie it up like a shoelace
Every morning's a new day, not trying to sound
Like I'm preaching, I'm just trying to pick you up when you're down
I think I been around, long enough to figure out
That it's time to start moving more than my goddamn mouth
Memories haunt you
Run away
Consequences
Close you're eyes - seeing ghosts
Memories haunt you, there's nowhere to go
Run away and they'll follow you home
Consequences that you'll never know
Close your eyes now, are you seeing ghosts
