Soldier Ghost

I broke your heart like a wrecking ball
when your dreams were tall
but you're hopes were small
I had every other memory
two loved beside of my back then

I took you where the temptation poured
how it spilled for you
how I poured some more
right there on the floor
right there on the floor
I poured some more until I had to get my way

I've made mistakes I've made mistakes
and I will take it to my grace
I told a lie, I told a lie
and I will never be the same

You haunt me now like a soldier ghost
from the world war post
with your blood soaked hopes
I have every other memory
every other memory is you

I have you still in a picture frame
you were sixteen then
you were my best friend, you were
you are the only one
the only one who loves me like a kid

I've made mistakes I've made mistakes
and I will take it to my grace
I told a lie, I told a lie
and I will never be the same
I loved you then, I love you still
and I will take it to my grave
I told a lie, I told a lie
and I will never be the same
