Ghosts in the machine

Out of every story
Why did you have to pick the same one?
Explain me that
Where is it then?
This might be important to you
You may have planned out what you wanted
And i'm erasing it as i go along
It's funny how they expect me to know who i am

So how to
Keep the light in your voice?
How to keep it alive?
How to lie awake at night?

You picked her on the warmest day of this winter
Chasing shadows on the street
Catching eyelines so intently
I don't think we're on the same page any more
I've turned a few and bent over the corners
Ghosts in the machine

Trying to feel something new, something at all
Oh blame it all on me when you pass on the same old same, old lines
You're one of those who locks the door behind

Keep the light in your voice
How to keep it alive?
How to lie awake at night?

Screaming from the platform that you raised
Oh under my feet but you can break it down
Faster than we're building, we're falling
