lyrics

there used to be a ghost in this light, but now it's gone out
the gas lamp has run out of fuel and fire
it flickered and died
and now this ghost is mine

there used to be these ghosts in my eyes, but now they've gone out
the specters wrote down words by candlelight
bout rain and storm and love in comet flames
that grew out of the page
filled the sky with empty fire
went to space, erupted higher
hit the moon and flew back down again

there used to be these ghosts in this song, but now they've gone out
the theater forgot to put their light out
so now they find another home
inside another song i wrote
but i don't know which one

there used to be a ghost in this life, but now it's gone out
(i forgot these words)
flickered and died
and now this ghost is mine
