(You're My) Haunted Lyric

--

These words, I strum so delicate.
Just for you.
This may seem like an endless song.
We've grown apart; I've seen it coming.
The dying bird sings so sweetly,
She doesn't have a melody.
Why the hell do I keep thinking?
Now let this chorus be born!

Just take this guitar and play your life away.
You know, you will always be my Haunted Lyric.
Draining my words from inside me; my purgatory.
In this endless dream of whirlwind memories,
My Haunted Lyric, pierce this shallow reverie.
Don't let this chorus die...

A lonely night I write this down.
Just for you.
Like sand through an hour glass,
Our time has been forgotten;
Dissolved by pain and vague from lies.
The dying bird finally captured her melody,
Though now she doesn't remember.
Oh, don't make the same mistake twice.

Just take this guitar and play your life away.
You know, you will always be my Haunted Lyric.
Draining my words from inside me; my purgatory.
In this endless dream of whirlwind memories,
My Haunted Lyric, pierce this shallow reverie.
Don't let this chorus die...

Well, now, my Haunted Lyric, where is your artifice?
I warned you; there's no burning this philosophy.
So sorry, my dear, you're only a dead melody.
Those words, I strummed so delicate.
I did all that just for you.
Your time is up.

Just take this guitar and play your life away.
You know, you will always be my Haunted Lyric.
Draining my words from inside me; my purgatory.
In this endless dream of whirlwind memories,
My Haunted Lyric, pierce this shallow reverie.
This chorus shall never die.

Thank you for reading; I hope you enjoyed it. I wrote this song a few years ago.
