Living In A Haunted Heart

I stumbled in and i fell straight asleep in the chair

Swear i did

Woke with a start and i thought i saw you floating by

Swear i did



The fixtures and furniture's the same

As the second you walked out the door

But here in my head you put a ghost train

And i can't go 'round any more



And i hear the passengers scream

I'm living in a haunted heart

And i tell myself it's all a bad dream

I'm living in a haunted heart



Too proud to beg you to come back

One more drink, the fairground fades to black

Every night



Days last for years 'til the dark, like a bear,

Puts his claws around my brain

Smack! bang on time, with your laugh, you walk in

Through the walls around my brain



The curtains and carpets are the same

As the day you dissolved in thin air

Now here i go queueing for the horror ride

Knowing i don't have the fare



And i hear the passengers scream

I'm living in a haunted heart

And i tell myself it's all a bad dream

I'm living in a haunted heart



Too proud to beg you to come back

As the ghost train rattles 'round its track,

Every night



I can't exorcise you or cause you to reappear

But if you want to know what nothing looks like

Well just peel back my chest and take a look inside here



The fixtures and furniture's the same

As the second you walked out the door

But here in my head you put a ghost train

And i can't go 'round any more



And i hear the passengers scream

I'm living in a haunted heart

And you're shaking me apart at the seams

I'm living in a haunted heart

My reality is pushed past extremes

I'm living in a haunted heart

And i tell myself it's just a bad dream

I'm living in a haunted heart



Too proud to beg you to come back

One more drink, the fairground fades to black.
