I feel like a ghost
Watching the world from a distance
My body in its place
But my mind in a world by itself

I feel like a ghost
Watching your every move
Hiding in my corner
But waiting just to be with you

I feel like a ghost
Watching the minutes pass
As I lie here alone
And the world begins to leave me

I feel like a ghost
Watching my fingers turn frozen
I can no longer move
And my body keeps aching

I feel like a ghost
Watching my pulse start to slow
My heart beats fade
As I finally turn into one
