「Take me in your hands and make me whole」
ghost of night is a difficult song to describe. it’s a song about loneliness and the ache it brings, about losing yourself to loneliness, about the pain and anger that come from living through it over and over. it’s also a song about letting go, about wanting to heal and feel alive again, about starting to find yourself and the light at the end of it all.
to have been able to work with such an incredible roster of staff to bring this to life is something i am so grateful to have experienced. despite troubles and setbacks, every person who helped on this touched it with their own special magic. to have had the support of so many people anticipating its release too has been nothing short of an amazing feeling.
i hope that this song can resonate with you, even just a little bit. i hope that “ghost” you may carry in you can resonate with it. i hope they feel heard and know that they too, will find solace. that they will be made whole again.

Lyrics:
close your eyes, o ghost of night
won’t you rest, in darkened light?
hold it tight, that fading rope
in the hopes you won’t drown again
shadowed hands in silver glow
won’t you pull me closer to home?
all i have are cold, cold feet
having walked a million miles deep
into another dark dark place
loneliness is my best friend
never ending
circles and circles of grief
whispers of feelings and passing daydreams
scum at the bottom of your cup
it’s never enough
searching for something unknown
soul full of rain and soul full of cold
won’t you warm me up?
this ghost of night has had enough
take me in your hands and make me whole
come undone, o ghost of knots
take heart in your solemn thought
no poor man would look your way
for you are as clear as rain
stain the pavement, stain it grey
as the day that she passed away
sleepless nights, she cried and cried
for somebody out of sight
stain the pavement stain your hands
with the blood of that shaking lamb
the sinners are damned
but the ghosts are left in shells of man
circles and circles of grief
whispers of feelings and passing daydreams
scum at the bottom of your cup
it’s never enough
searching for something unknown
soul full of rain and soul full of cold
won’t you set me free?
this ghost of knots is begging, “please
spare me of this feeling”
oh won’t you warm me up?
this ghost of night has had enough
take me in your hands and make me whole
