Your image was fading
Restless hours were waning
And I thought I buried the past in the ground, but suddenly now I can hear the sound of
Your footsteps stalking
And behind the door you're knocking
You enter in and then begin to creep around the back of my mind again
I wake up in the dead of night
(terrified)
At the echo of your taunting cry
So now that you've come back to haunt me
What is it that you want from me
After all that you've done for the sake of tragedy
And just like a ghost up in the attic
You possess my mind with panic
After lurking in the shadows of my apathy
You had me chasing
A nightmare in the making
Now your phantom forebodes my fear of regret, and though I moved on you won't let me forget
I wake up in the dead of night
(terrified)
At the echo of your taunting cry
So now that you've come back to haunt me
What is it that you want from me
After all that you've done for the sake of tragedy
And just like a ghost up in the attic
You possess my mind with panic
After lurking in the shadows of my apathy
Playing with fear and casting doubt
You followed me round to figure me out
I put you in the past where you belong
Guess you were an enemy all along
I saw the glow of your gaslight
But it flickered in and out of sight
So I blamed my delusional mind
And you've kept me in the dark for all this time
So now that you've come back to haunt me
What is it that you want from me
After all that you've done for the sake of tragedy
And just like a ghost up in the attic
You possess my mind with panic
After lurking in the shadows of my apathy
