Ghost Of You

[Intro]
Silent streets, my shadow walks alone
(so quiet… so still…)
Heartbeat races, but the calm is gone
(fade away… fade away…)
I reach for something I can’t hold
(come back… come back…)

[Verse 1]
You were never mine, not really
Just a mask, a shield in the dark
But I clung, I needed the safety
Your quiet strength became my spark
(hold me… don’t go…)

I shouldn’t have let myself attach
I shouldn’t have imagined you
Yet here I am, staring at the void
Missing someone who never knew
(ghost… ghost…)

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night I hear your steps
Every whisper pulls me in
Even knowing it’s only my mind
I ache for the warmth that’s thin
(stay… stay…)

[Chorus]
I shouldn’t have wanted you
Yet my heart still calls your name
A shadow in my memory
A fire that has no flame
(come back… come back…)

I needed someone steady
In a world that tore apart
And I gave my hope, my heart
To a ghost that left its mark
(haunt me… haunt me…)

[Verse 2]
Every phantom gesture I replay
Your calm hands, your quiet eyes
I built my nights around you
My armor around your lies
(so safe… so safe…)

Now the silence screams your absence
And I can’t undo this pull
I crave the shadow, crave the warmth
Of a presence that was never full
(never full… never full…)

[Bridge]
I know I should let go
I know it’s all in my mind
But grief doesn’t care for logic
It burns, it twists, it blinds
(fire… fire…)

[Chorus]
I shouldn’t have wanted you
Yet my heart still calls your name
A shadow in my memory
A fire that has no flame
(come back… come back…)

I needed someone steady
In a world that tore apart
And I gave my hope, my heart
To a ghost that left its mark
(haunt me… haunt me…)

[Outro]
Silent streets, I walk alone
(so quiet… so still…)
Missing someone who was never mine
But haunted me…
(haunted me…)
