The Peepshow Ghosts Lyrics - The Damage Manual

Baby, why'd you wake me? 

Is it my idea of eyes, a thousand sleeping eyes? 

It's creeping up to you like peepshow ghosts they do 

A sorry fault of mine will take you back in time 

The peepshow ghosts will fade away 

And reappear in you 

And if my dead darling stays away 

She will break my heart in two 

The booths all ragged style 

You crawled that extra mile 

Where the woman ends 

And shame begins 

The world can read your mind 

The girl can make you blind 

All hostage stolen flesh 

Will nail you to the rest 

I dreamed about the faithless 

I asked them passers by 

Could you wake me if I start to shake 

If I should start to cry 

Remind me of my crime and every fault of mine 

When bitter starts to turn around 

And bites your swollen face 

The stolen stabbing darkness 

The nakedness and starkness 

Will kill you if you stay too near to hear just pray
