lyrics

Ghost in My Hand (2:45)

I know the place where you're going to
I know where you are
I know the face that you're holding to
I know who you are
Losing yourself in a closet of secrets
I can surely understand
surely as holding the flame of a ghost in my hand

I know the traces of what you've done
I know what you do
I know the distance between the lines
that entangle truth
Moving with grace in the maze of the restless
I can surely understand
surely as holding the flame of a ghost in my hand

Miles away, beautiful and blighted
comes the blue parade of the divided
I remain holding a ghost in my hand

Miles away, you will get excited
by the single gaze of the united
I remain uniquely uninvited

I know the reason you count the length
of the steps you take
I know the window you place before
any friend you make
Deeply divided but cleanly connected
I can surely understand
surely as holding the flame of a ghost in my hand
