Ghosts From the Past — dbuck

Verse 1

I hear the footsteps where the night runs thin,
Old mistakes crawling under my skin.
Time can’t bury what refuses to die,
The past still lingers, I don’t know why.

Verse 2

Broken names carved deep in the stone,
I walk the road but I’m never alone.
Every mile brings me back again,
To the place where it started, to the place it ends.

Chorus

Ghosts from the past, they’re pulling me down,
Whispers of lives that circle around.
No matter the distance, I can’t break free,
The ghosts from the past still live in me.

Verse 3

The fire burns low but the faces remain,
Etched in my soul, carved in my brain.
I close my eyes but the visions stay,
Leading me back to yesterday.

Outro

Ghosts from the past—
they never let go.
Haunting forever—
all that I know.
