Wanting (Ghosts Haunting Ghosts)

I found myself slipping away
Cloaked in red with waxen face, a howling void of flesh
Withered and eternal
Left to rot beneath my home

From within the obsidian dark, I glimpsed faces from my youth
Disfigured beyond recognition, speaking in dead tongues
I couldn't remember who they were
They meant everything to me

You were there too (You were there too)
Fading with the rest of them
Suspended above the trees
Casting light through sheets of fog as a stellar remnant
I was blind with pity and anger for time moves too quickly

Time moves too quickly
To think I once believed I could (Time moves too quickly)
Delay the setting sun
What I wouldn't give (Time moves too quickly)
To reclaim those days
Time moves too quickly

From behind my mask I called
But you were fading with the rest of them
