The Last Time We Met

Verse 1  
You showed up like a ghost in heat  
Leather boots, no heart to greet  
One night stand in a war-torn bed  
Then vanished like the words you never said  

Pre-Chorus  
I chase your shadow through static and smoke  
Your silence cuts deeper than the lies you spoke  

Chorus  
The last time we met, you were halfway gone  
Eyes like sirens, pulling me along  
You kissed like a curse, then left me to drown  
Now I scream your name in this dead-end town  

Verse 2  
Your lipstick’s still on my cigarette  
Burns like truth I can't forget  
You haunt the cracks in my ceiling tiles  
A love that limps through venom and denial  

Bridge  
I built a shrine from broken glass  
Lit it with the rage of our final clash  
You’re the echo in my amp’s decay  
A ghost riff I can’t throw away  

Breakdown  
You never stayed, you never tried  
Just fed me dreams and watched them die  
I’m done begging for your time  
This song’s your grave, and I wrote every line  

Final Chorus  
The last time we met, I saw through your skin  
A hollow queen with a plastic grin  
You kissed like a curse, then left me to drown  
But I’m not your fool — not this time around
