The Strand – Haunted lyrics

I war inside
More than prophesized
Won't kill sweetest dreams
Arresting my puppet
My puppet strings

What is the cost of my thoughts that became?
I wear a cast so I can't play any games
This is the long haul
The pitfall that we face
I'm haunted by the other lips you will taste

I know it's coming
I'm running for shelter
I seek distractions for reactions I can't filter
This is a symptom
I'm about to leave this chapter
I was going nowhere
Now I'm getting there faster

Lips you will taste!

This mighty web we've spun can save us from all the weight above
But who avoids the hands of time?
I pray it's your's and mine
Your life has just begun and what we have can never be undone
I know there's pieces you must find
You're out of sight but not out of mind

War!

This is a symptom
I'm about to leave this chapter
I was going nowhere, now I'm getting there faster
Lips you will taste!
I know it's coming, I'm running for shelter
I seek distractions for reactions I can't filter
Lips you will taste!
