lyrics

Ghost Life:
Break out the big guns
There's no reward
It's just a bargain we try to hoard
I'm feeling brainwashed
It's existential
This reputation isn't yours to tarnish

Am I just another scapegoat?
How many do you have on reserve?
I'm running out of self-deception
My motive's crystal clear
Let's just disappear

Searchlights
I'm hiding from the spotlight
I'm carving little figures in the walls
I'm finding little solace in these halls
Searchlight
I'm hiding from the spotlight

Panic is elevated
I'm reaching despiration
System's in reverse
And we're running out of options

This situation is about to erupt
And we're bringing out the kerosine
My senses have been sabotaged
But the futility is empirical
I'll proudly stand back
Outcast and scarred
If it allows me to escape from this tyranny

Searchlights
I'm hiding from the spotlight
I'm carving little figures in the walls
I'm finding little solace in these halls
Searchlight
I'm hiding from the spotlights

I'm living a ghost life
It's all in my mind
I can't abolish
these alibies
But I can see right through your lies
I'm missing deadlines
It's all sequential
There's got to be another way around

Am I just another scapegoat?
How many do you have on reserve?
I'm running out of self-deception
My motive's crystal clear
Let's just disappear
Let's just disappear
