Bluem - Give Up The Ghost

Let me say that I know when I should be confessing

I’m counting everything- my change and blessings

Chemists cursed me imbalanced

I ran through the streets until my legs gave in

«Hey, even without light I could see that we were failures»

And I am coming clean of dreams that don’t exist

Oh God, it’s in the air when it should be

Safe between our hands

«And love, even without light I could see that we would fail»

Let me say what I mean

Let me sleep on your floor

Let me learn to love

Cause I can feel my face sinking

Through bruised bones, barely hiding my mind

Failure fascination — I got a count on all I’ll never have

And I am dying to not give up on this

(And I confess, my fixation is my fix)

And I’ve been running around trying to find my home

Twenty years on the run trying to find my own

(And I confess, a house is not a home)

My head is red- my bones black and blue

Fever burns- choke on words at the thought of you

(And I confess, fixation is my fix)

Sing a song for the disenchanted

Hum a hymn for the misdirected

A little love for the sons and daughters

Shadow-sitting life in forgotten corners

(and then)

I fell hard over myself again

I confess my love for everything

I woke up and needed to sleep again

With the music bleeding in my veins

Goddamn the yesterdays

With the love of all there is to love

We’re who you’re dreaming of

With the music bleeding in my veins

Goddamn the yesterdays

With the love of all there is to love

You’re the one who we’re dreaming of

I confess…
