[Verse 1, Slow, Lost, Dark, Whispering ethereal Harmonies] I lost my home to fire and flame, (Lost her crew but kept the blame…) (Her heart beats heavy, her hands stay strong,) (// Gwen Sings: ), “But the ghosts I carry still sing along…” [Verse 1, Slow, Lost, Dark, Whispering ethereal Harmonies] I lost my home to fire and flame, (Lost her crew but kept the blame…) (Her heart beats heavy, her hands stay strong,) (// Gwen Sings: ), “But the ghosts I carry still sing along…” [Verse 2 , Waltz Rhythm Sways, Moving Forward] One by one, they call My name, Soft voices floating within the frame… (“Why’d you leave us? Why’d you go?”) (“Did you forget the ones below?”) [Chorus, The Ghosts Join in, Whispering ethereal Harmonies ] (Ohhhh, the stars don’t shine the way they used to…) And I swear I hear them call… (Ohhhh), I board a ship to leave them behind… (But the past don’t fade at all…) A home lost with no return… (She tried to fight, she tried to stay,) But no one listens anyway… (//A soft, distant hum—"like voices on the radio, lost in static".) [Bridge, The Music Fades, Gwen’s Spoken Words Voice, Raw and Alone] I swear, some nights, I still see their faces… Still feel their hands on my shoulder… Still hear them whisper… (Gwen… Gwen…) [Final Chorus, Gwen sings with A Choir of Ghostly ethereal Harmonies.] (Ohhhh, the stars don’t shine the way they used to…) And I swear I hear them call… (Ohhhh), I board a ship to leave them behind… But the past don’t fade at all…, The past don’t fade at all(“The past don’t fade at all…”) [Fade Out, The steel guitar whispers one last, long cry, A radio signal flickers, Then silence] [END]
