LYRICS

Verse 1:
The lack of time
It keeps crawling back into my mind
The dream's so close
Yet far away enough to be a host
For all my worries, oh my dear


Pre-Chorus:
It feels like I will never withstand
My own constitution of my demands


Chorus:
I hope I could just run so far
Away so I can lose 
This feeling that I'm wasting
All my time on things that don't matter 


Verse 2:
This curse of mine
It keeps coming back into my life
I dream like most
For acceptance but instead I roam like a ghost
With all these worries, oh my dear


Pre-Chorus:
It feels like I will never withstand
My own constitution of my demands


Chorus x2:
I hope I could just run so far
Away so I can lose 
This feeling that I'm wasting
All my time on things that don't matter 

Run so far
Away so I can lose 
This feeling that I'm wasting
All my time on things 


Bridge:
That don't matter 
And just make my way into
All their hearts
Since this is what I love to do
But instead I roam like a ghost

I hope I could run so far


Chorus x2:
Away so I can lose 
This feeling that I'm wasting
All my time on things that don't matter

Run so far
Away so I can lose 
This feeling that I'm wasting
All my time on things that don't matter

Roam like a ghost

Roam Like A Ghost

Yes, you're right. This song has nothing to do with what I've uploaded here before:) 

I love dub and reggae and last year I wanted to do an EP within this sphere as a new project. Unfortunately as I was struck by a huge writer's block I only did this one song. The block also caused me not to write anything for Yellow Sparrow for almost a whole year.

Luckily I'm now out of my funk and I've begun to write again, but the idea of a dub/reggae EP is just not going to happened right now. However instead of just letting this track be hidden away on my computer, I've decided to upload it here. I hope you like it.
