Cyndi Corkran: Walking With Ghosts |
LyricsWalking With GhostsLyrics/Music © 2016 Starburst Music, LLC Cyndi Corkran He's walking here beside me With his blackened hollowed eyes Uniform in tatters Still he doesn't realize His time to have moved on Was many years ago He's walking here beside me This old friend I used to know (chorus) I'm walking with the ghosts From the war we never won Seeing dead men all around me Pleading what have I become? An existential being? An un-elected host? My life has changed forever I'm walking with the ghosts She's sitting in the chair At my dining table now Saying Mister can you help me? Got to get up, don't know how Half her face sadly is missing From the suicieder's bomb She's as clear as mother's helper In a war where all's gone wrong (chorus) I'm walking with the ghosts From the war we never won Seeing dead men all around me Pleading what have I become? An existential being An unelected host My life has changed forever I'm walking with the ghosts (bridge) A platoon huddled together Sitting in my living room Casting shadows on the carpet Shaping fears I'll feel too soon (chorus) I'm walking with the ghosts From the war we never won Seeing dead men all around me Pleading what have I become? An existential being An un-elected host My life has changed forever I'm walking with the ghosts |
