Ghost Ships

Twinkle, twinkle little star...
I watch your face disappear through fading lines
We once spoke.
My alibis, like fireflies drifting through the world
I've let go and set a sail like a ghost ship in the night
Some people do bad things to live a good life
But never make things right

Twinkle, twinkle little star... How beautiful you are!
And then one day you'll learn the world is fucked up and full of scars...
How beautiful you are...

I was given a role to play
Deceived, lead to believe
Overwhelmed by grief
I gave the tools
Little by little and piece by piece
To build the perfect beast
CREATOR, pray for peace
Because I'm armed to the teeth

I smell your cheap perfume
I smell the liquor in the room
I'll save my wishes for the stars and moon

I want to wake up with the stars...
SAIL ME AWAY
(Through the fog, in the dark)
TAKE ME AWAY
Through the dark and hurtful memories... (Sail away)
Howling at the moon...
Maybe we'll catch a breeze
Then come away, immune and bleached

Stay away from me
Treat me like someone you've never known
Let me run my course through the night alone

I smell your cheap perfume
I smell the liquor in the room
I'll save my wishes for the stars and moon
I smell your cheap perfume
I smell the liquor in the room
A fool gives his heart way too soon

I want to wake up with the stars
SAIL ME AWAY
(Through the fog, in the dark)
TAKE ME AWAY
Through the dark and hurtful memories... (Sail away)
Howling at the moon...
Maybe we'll catch a breeze
Then come away, immune and bleached
