My First And Last Lyrics - Singles - Ghost

School yards to smokey bars 

All these shadows a long the wall 

Wide eyed under endless skies 

When ceilings seemed so tall 

Erase and replace 

I found a monster to call my own 

Reflections trace a changing face 

Regrets in flesh and bone 

I've built this castle in sand 

It becomes smaller with every grain 

I've built this future with my hands 

The silouhettes mark my gain 

Suffocate this child and choke on the result 

These seeds with no light 

A blind will to grow 

Blueprints of descent 

It's etched in the past that we all know 

Scarred chins and splitting shins 

Caloused with fears that show 

Erase and replace 

I found a monster to call my own 

Red crayons and open hands 

I was taught by sticks and stones 

Seperated but the kids still breathing 

Somewhere in between 

It's when our limbs they weigh us down 

We retrace the seams 

But under cold rain and hot air I once watched time stand still 

I stepped back and smiled at the small shoes that I've filled
