lyrics

Everywhere I go is haunted
Like a liquid plague
On a desert tongue
Every smile burns to a grin
And for a moment I see
What we've become and, well,
It's every ghost for them self

Every time I run to your side
I feel that burning slowly subdside
It's gonna cause a hole right in my heart
It's gonna cut it out
To lit on me to question
Why does every ghost have to die?

If the only one to be is who I've been
Then I've already failed
Just use this white flag
To light a Molotov cocktail

But a calling out
Points me out
And it finds the drought
And it pours it out
To drown the doubt
And open my mouth
For a greater sound
To come tumbling out

If the universe ain't giving me
Direction and the timing when to go
Then what's with all this
Psychedelic contraband and innuendo
That pulls me and speaks my language?

Open eyes open arms.
Open minds open hearts.

It won't come from expectation
Born from the bottom's foundation

Far too personal to name
But the call-to-arms has changed
It says,
"Brothers and sisters, pick up your swords
And haunt the ghosts
Of all that we were"
