Hauntology Lyrics by Lauren Auder
There is a ghost
A hologram
A projection
Of a thought that gave hope
I watch it shift
With every second
Every word that is spoke
A slip in intentions
All this tension
What becomes and what won’t
Hope it exists
In other dimensions
Time is haunted differently
It’s something you let go
No new comes of repeating
The things we almost hold
This grief is like labour
Won’t reap what you sow
Lost your voice of reason
Your reason to go
Give me your best joke
The peace of inaction
Promises you broke
Somewhere never happened
Every word that is spoke
All connections
All affection
Every time that you choke
Stuck in a loop no direction
This grief is like labour
Won’t reap what you sow
Lost your voice of reason
Your reason to go
