I'm a ghost in this machine
that don't scare anyone but me
a reflection in the glass
skating on the clock like the ice is going to break
just 'cause it has in the past
hanging round like a cloud getting poured
spend half a life trying to get warm
flying by through an open door
drawn to the light
I'm gonna suck your blood
'til I'm good and drunk
sail this ship 'til it's finally sunk
have a slice of life
when it's good and ripe
noone's keeping track
but the dominos get stacked
the show must go on
while you learn how to act
like someone you dreamed up
in some childish scheme
damn near dragged the lake
stop hooking the bait
rocking in that chair
the water is crystal clear
don't get scared, but
theres no fish down here
