I never saw the future
As clearly as I see
That every soul that you were
Is somehow part of me
And every omen lately
Is coming back again
It’s too late to persuade me
That nothing real could end
But still I prefer to pretend
The same reincarnation
That brought this back to life
Is a sweet hallucination
That all things lost survive
I realize how this may seem
I’m smiling, lost at sea
This psychedelic daydream
Became reality
And this broken simulation
Has made me well aware
Of the constant realization
That you’ll always be there
Because your ghost is everywhere
