Xtc - Living In A Haunted Heart Lyrics
I stumbled in and I fell straight asleep in the chairSwear I didWoke with a start and I thought I saw you floating bySwear I didThe fixtures and furnitures the sameAs the second you walked out the doorBut here in my head you put a ghost trainAnd I cant go round any moreAnd I hear the passengers screamIm living in a haunted heartAnd I tell myself its all a bad dreamIm living in a haunted heartToo proud to beg you to come backOne more drink, the fairground fades to blackEvery nightDays last for years til the dark, like a bear,Puts his claws around my brainSmack! bang on time, with your laugh, you walk inThrough the walls around my brainThe curtains and carpets are the sameAs the day you dissolved in thin airNow here I go queueing for the horror rideKnowing I dont have the fareAnd I hear the passengers screamIm living in a haunted heartAnd I tell myself its all a bad dreamIm living in a haunted heartToo proud to beg you to come backAs the ghost train rattles round its track,Every nightI cant exorcise you or cause you to reappearBut if you want to know what nothing looks likeWell just peel back my chest and take a look inside hereThe fixtures and furnitures the sameAs the second you walked out the doorBut here in my head you put a ghost trainAnd I cant go round any moreAnd I hear the passengers screamIm living in a haunted heartAnd youre shaking me apart at the seamsIm living in a haunted heartMy reality is pushed past extremesIm living in a haunted heartAnd I tell myself its just a bad dreamIm living in a haunted heartToo proud to beg you to come backOne more drink, the fairground fades to black.
