Soothe the ghosts

Nothing can be done here

but we will try anyway

nothing can smooth over

the unending crushing weight

We try to make it right

try to make it just so

but the effort falls too short

And the progress is no go

We work to make it good

but nothing every goes through

How do we

Soothe the ghosts

of the past we

want to favor the most

How do we 

Soothe the ghost

of feelings never shared

I think I hate this the most

Nothing can be said here

words, they fall too short

Nothing can start here

the end began before the start

We try to make it right

try to make it so

but the effort falls too short

we try to make it work

try to make it good

but nothing every goes through

How do we

Soothe the ghosts

of the past we

want to favor the most

How do we 

Soothe the ghost

of feelings never shared

I think I hate this the most

I close my eyes

picture a time

when everything falls into place

I take my time 

and open my eyes

to a feeling I cannot replace

We try to make it right

try to make it so

but the effort falls too short

we try to make it work

try to make it good

but nothing every goes through

How do we

Soothe the ghosts

of the past we

want to favor the most

How do we 

Soothe the ghost

of feelings never shared

I think I hate this the most
