From the recording Check It Twice / Step 4

Lyrics

In the mirror of my shattered nights
I see a face that's lost in fights
Scratching through the hidden scars
Chasing shadows of fading stars

Counting sins like fallen leaves
Wading through my tangled grief
Each step heavier than before
Walking on this haunted shore

Ghosts of what I used to be
Whispering secrets
Setting me free
Honesty's a heavy chain
Digging deep in the well of pain

Memories like broken glass
Cutting through my fragile past
Every lie and stolen kiss
Edges cold as winter's mist

Under the weight of constant need
Trying to plant a truthful seed
But the soil’s tainted through and through
Trying to heal
Don't know what to do

Ghosts of what I used to be
Whispering secrets
Setting me free
Honesty's a heavy chain
Digging deep in the well of pain
