Lost soul
The price isn't worth the cost
The love isn't worth the loss
Life is for the living
Not a girl who's just a ghost
And there's no one left to see it
The darkness taking me
And there's no one who believes it
Because there's no one here with me
Someday I'll just vanish
Swallowed by my dark
It might take my life and dreams
But it will never take my heart
So if I'm suddenly gone one day
If I lose this endless war
Please know I fought with everything
I have worth fighting for
Please know I'm just so tired
I've been fighting for so long
I've given all I had to give
Until everything was gone
And love is not the answer
And hope is just a dream
And life is just a battle zone
And my soul is made of screams
The price I've paid was just too much
Everything I've lost
And I might seem like living
But I'm a girl who's just a ghost.
