Conversations With Ghosts

You needn't be a chamber
To house all the echoes and voices of those that have left you
Are you talking to me or somebody that you once knew passing through?
Do we talk anymore or do our voices dance around themselves in circles
Till we can't hear a damn thing?
We're still as stone but our shadows are dancing upon the wall

If you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts
And all those that you let too close
I'll be waiting
I'll go swimming in the caves
In the sparkle in your eyes
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry
Trying, so hard to say goodbye

Precious little mercies
As I stumble between the pillars of this worn-out hacienda
In the moonlight, sometimes it takes a storm to appreciate the still night
Don't let darkness in
Your voice just raging
But how can i protect you from what happened to you then
What's already been?
I can't give you the words that really should have come from him
Baby, I'm showing you my hand

If you ever get tired of your conversations with ghosts
And all those that you let too close
I'll be waiting
I'll go swimming in the caves
In the sparkle in your eyes
They're just the tears you don't let yourself cry
Trying, so hard to say goodbye
