Lyrics I Fell In Love With a Ghost - Rowland S. Howard, Lydia Lunch

I Fell In Love With a Ghost

I fell in love with a ghost
He’s just a shadow of his former self
I fell in love with a ghost
She’s just a shadow of the past
The very first day of ever before we ever began
The light through the pipes in the back of a trunk
Strings to my back it snaps just like a puppet
It never happens to you
It always happens to me
Stuck in the wall
Holed up in the wall, destructive
Do you really think there’s any getting out of this?
Boys in the night who scream in their delerium
All in a row and incidently they’ve stopped
Begin to inhale and you and up addicted
Like the scent of fire pine right to the bone
Casket covered with roses that’s the way its going
Hollowed out open to the bone
Strings to my back it snaps just like a puppet
It never happens to you
It always happens to me
