lyrics

I killed you for a reason
Your spirit still remains
Blood pumping through my veins
Turning the corner I see your silvery shape
And my heart's beating fast

What kind of amulets do I have to buy?
What kind of mediums do I have to hire?
I want your ghost gone

You sit on my chest every night
Suffocate me with your knees
Why else would you visit me every night?
Is there something?

Your spirit remains in my heart and in my head
Your form sits at the end of my bed
Your body lies heavy on my chest
Our blankets become a bird's nest
