A Skeleton of Something More Lyrics by Sleeping At Last

Ghosts

2003

In the darkest of nights
The city of lights
Will pour unto us
Creeping inside
Through our sleepy eyes
Contagiously bright
Like sunlight and rain
Flooding through the veins
Of wilted vines
But love travels like a rumor here
Losing form with every ear
A skeleton of something more
But waking seems an awful dream
We'll be waiting for the night
Waiting for the night
To come and rescue us
Feet off the ground
Besides, we're living in this house of cards
That pulls and pushes with the air
Fearing a feather to the earth
Could destroy it and us
Inside unaware!
All we want is something more
To dream about and to adore
All we need is a little place
To close our eyes, to end this chase
The living are moving
Gracefully
And painfully rushing ahead
While unraveling the most essential thread
Of the fabric that covers us
We'll be waiting for the night
Waiting for the night
To always come and rescue us
Feet off the ground
Our hearts become magnetized
The warmth of the sun
Is melting the snowflakes
Before they hit the ground
