Ghost in the Machine

There's a ghost in the machine and it sees me sleeping
There's a ghost in the machine and it hears me weeping
Come closer to me, doesn't mean anything
Come closer to me, doesn't keep me from leaving

I want to see the Philly Skyline
I want to go to your secret spot
I want to read the book you wrote
I want to meet the dog you walk
You said "would you really drive all the way?
Just to see me face-to-face?"
I said "It's worth the trip to stay, like a honeymoon of a getaway"
You said my name
My stomach sank
Be there in half-a-day
If you wait
Teach me all the history
Walk with me over brick-laid streets
Tell me stories of broken dreams
Lay with me when it's time to sleep
Don't forget me when I leave
Just be patient, wait and see
I'll be back for another week if it''s here that you'll still be

Moms garden
Keeps growing
The trees look like wildflowers
I’m not coming home
A cyclical overdose
A brief skin crawl
A fevered sleep, a cold sweat
Brother, you look so sick
I’m not here forever
But I’m here right now
so tell me what I can do
How can I make you proud
A circling deathwish draught
You pray for a dream
A pressure just strong enough to keep you
From coming clean

Father, I cannot recall
The war
I know if I could I’d have a lot to be sorry for
I know well and good that good goes first
A life of crime keeps me living out the family curse
It feels so real sometimes
I forget who I’m talking to, who am I kidding,
You always lie
Six sisters sleep in separate rooms
In a monastery overlooking years and years of catholic rule
Pray to a god they thought they knew
And when he doesn’t answer they get more suspicious too
Yeah I got fooled this time
They’ll all get what they’re do as soon as it’s my turn to lie
