"Living as a Ghost"
by Emerald A. Behrens
Grim Goblin Jack
© 2022

I live as a ghost
I walk as a ghost

no one sees
no one hears

I live as a ghost

can you see me?
can you hear me?

I'm a ghost

I walk the night
I walk the day

invisible
invisible
here

I live as a ghost

For several years
For several nights
I've lived alone

Throughout the years
Throughout the nights
I alone exist
as a ghost

I live as a ghost

I walk as a ghost

No one sees
No one hears

I'm a ghost

Can you see me?
Can you hear me?

crying out
alone

I walk the day
invisible

I'm a ghost

. . . .

(drumbeat)

I survived
I survived
I survived the hell
here

alone alone alone

I survived to live the tale
I survived to sing about it all
for anyone who will listen
I survived

they tear me down
I don't care
they call me crazy
fuck that shit

I know what I've been through

to hell and back again
and again and again
and they make me go through it again

it's a war zone out here

I survived

it's what they do
it's what they do to me to you to us
to women

it's what they do
it's what I do
to survive here

living as a ghost
living but invisible to you to others
to everyone

here

is it worth it?
is it worth it?
another day another year to survive
is it worth it?
to hell and back again

can you hear me?
do you know what I'm saying here?

they thought they could kill me
they tried to kill me
they tried to take my life away from me

well it didn't work
not yet folks
I'm still here

I'm still here

as a ghost
in the day
in the night
crying out
alone
here

for you…

Lyrics:

Just like the seed
I don't know where to go
Through dirt and shadow, I grow
I’m reaching light through the struggle
Just like the sea
I’m chasing the wonder
I unravel myself
All in slow motion

You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
When the last tree has fallen
And the rivers are poisoned
You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
When the last tree has fallen
And the rivers are poisoned
You cannot eat money, oh no
Oh no

Suffocate me
So my tears can be rain
I will water the ground where I stand
So the flowers can grow back again
‘Cause just like the sea
Everything wants to live
We are burning our fingers
But we learn and forgive

You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
When the last tree has fallen
And the rivers are poisoned
You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
When the last tree has fallen
And the rivers are poisoned
You cannot eat money, oh no
Oh no

Feed me sunlight, feed me air
Feed me truth and feed me prayers
Feed me sunlight, feed me air
Feed me truth and feed me prayers

You cannot eat money, oh no
You cannot eat money, oh no
When the last tree has fallen
And the rivers are poisoned
You cannot eat money, oh no
Oh no

Everyone will know what happened.

I know what happened to her...
I know what happened to them...

I know the truth.
