Lyrics Diggin for Ghosts - My Ruin

Diggin for Ghosts

Time waits for no one, the days grow older and I grow colder
This Devil’s on my shoulder and he’s smiling at me
But I don’t trust what he’s saying and I don’t wanna believe
I find it hard to cry when I’m spent
Tie the wires around my head
Pound the nails into my flesh and I’m bleeding again
I’m diggin for ghosts and good stories scarlet to the bone
If I kill all my demons — Will my angels leave me alone
Time waits for no one, the nights get longer and I get stronger
Your God is standing before me with his arms out wide
But I don’t wanna give in to him so he can judge me or my life
I find it hard to cry when I’m spent
Tie the wires around my head
Pound the nails into my flesh and I’m bleeding again
I’m diggin for ghosts and good stories scarlet to the bone
If I kill all my demons — Will my angels leave me alone
Time is like the wind, it leaves the light and lifts the heavy
I’ve seen my fate and I’m not afraid, in fact I’m ready
Each moment has its memory and this too shall pass
Whether I wake or sleep I still believe that nothing last’s… Forever
Haughty eyes and a lying tongue
Hands that shed innocent blood
A heart that devises wicked plots — Feet that are swift to run
I’ve burned my bridges down — Turned my back on this town
I’ve burned my bridges down — Turned my back on this town
Let us pray that we enter not into temptation
The spirit is willing indeed but the flesh is weak
And as you sow—shall you reap
In loving memory
