Ghost Knocking

What’s become of all that numb I used to feel?
Upside down, you let me drown to reveal the heal
You picked me up, filled my cup, I guess it’s just my luck
One fell swoop, I’m recouped, my fate is sealed

I felt salvation at the door
Was it too much to afford?
But you swore open hearts could lead to more

All these years, all these fears, I walked them off
Make father proud, big stick and loud, this cocktail’s Molotov
Self-destruct, self-obstruct, I guess it’s just my luck
I’m compеlled to break from this cell and feed from your trough

I felt salvation at the door
Was it too much to afford?
But you swore open hearts could lead to more

God knows I’m trying
Expand this supply
Still hurts when crying
“Understand” is not “comply”

Native plants on foreign lands, golden in your glow
Plant the seed, fertilize and feed, and watch it grow
And if it blooms right on cue, it’s all because of you
Place it on a grave, placed by mistake, and make it a show

I felt salvation at the door (I guess it’s just my luck)
Was it too much to afford? (You showed up, right where I was stuck)
But you swore open hearts could lead to more (offered a branch with open hands)
(Before the midnight bell struck)
