From the recording We Are Born Blind

Lyrics

Notes: Lyrics by my son Lawton, who was sleeping in the room of his sister who passed away when she was 18 years old. It is full of memories......

GHOST IN THE MACHINE

There as ghost in the machine
Making memories and dreams
Beauty buried in the cold between the lines
Between the lines

There’s a shadow in the glass
Contrast color photographs
Canvas colored by the light between the lines
Between the lines

And every page, every take, every moment that we waste
There’s a chance, there’s a change, there’s a story we create
Every stop, every go, every goodbye and hello
Every dance, every play, every minute, every day

Lives are changed by the memories we make
Lives are changed by the memories we make
Everyday
Everyday

There are pictures on the wall
Framed in memories and love
Private gifts and epilogues between the lines
Between the lines

And every page, every take, every moment that we waste
There’s a chance, there’s a change, to the story we create
Every stop, every go, every goodbye and hello
Every dance, every play, every minute, every day


Lives are shaped by the memories we make
Lives are shaped by the memories we make
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday

And these memories we make
We must prove and we must take
Sacred preludes and prologues between the lines
Between the lines

And these memories we make
We must prove and we must take
Sacred preludes and prologues between the lines
Between the lines
