Haunted Lyrics

i've forfeited my right
to ever sleeping easy
again at night
given up on being alone
cause my conscience is the loudest company
when no one's home
and i still can't believe how quick it happened
from momentary lapse to chain reaction
after all these years
i can't out run your tears

i'll turn 98
still saying sorry everyday
i need you to know that you're all that i wanted
and that i'm still haunted

i've been losing track of time
lost in thoughts of a life
that that would not be mine
how many bottles will it take
to wash down the toughest pill
that i'll have to take

i wonder how far we could have seen it
can one foolish man leave fate defeated
after all these years
i can't out run your tears

i'll turn 98
still saying sorry everyday
i need you to know that you're all that i wanted
and that i'm still haunted
