The Paper-Hearted Ghost |
Your skin was as white as the fresh fallen snow |
Your eyes were so bright with a promising glow |
Your lips red as roses and your hair black as coal |
I would have given my life but you’ve taken my soul |
There was nothing on you a man wouldn’t admire |
My heart made of paper and you’ve been playing with fire |
I think I will never know why you chose me |
But I know that I’m not the man I used to be |
You knew you’re my queen without realm without crown |
Just one look from you turned my world upside down |
You didn’t want a piece of me, you took the entire |
My heart made of paper and you’ve been playing with fire |
Your heart was so hungry and I was the feed |
But soon you ate your fill and now I must bleed |
You loved me forever but just for a while |
You’ve broken my heart and my life with a smile |
I’d never have dreamt of you being a liar |
My heart made of paper and you’ve been playing with fire |
I told you that I couldn’t live without you |
You promised redemption it proved to be true |
You shortened my suffering with a long knife |
First she’d taken my love then she’d taken my life |
Where we loved each other my bed was my pyre |
My heart made of paper and you’ve been playing with fire |
Now I’m hunting the land I’m prowling around |
Or so many years I’ve been searching but found |
Not a trace, I confess it’s unfortunately true |
I should be ashamed but I still do love you |
There still is this damned so called burning desire |
My heart made of paper and you’ve been playing with fire |
Now you know my name as my story’s exposed |
Now you know why they call me the paper-hearted ghost |
