Ghost in my skin

Ghost in My Skin"

[Verse 1]
I hear your voice inside the static
Every word is automatic
Cut me open, see the wires
Short-circuited by your fire

I built a world in my reflection
But cracked the glass with my obsession
A hollow heart with neon veins
I smile just to mask the pain

[Pre-Chorus]
You said I’d heal in time —
But I’m still bleeding, still believing
That love was just a lie
Dressed up to keep me dreaming

[Chorus]
There's a ghost in my skin
And it’s wearing my face
Whispers all of my sins
In a voice I can't erase
I'm a shadow of what I used to be
Just a glitch in the memory
There’s a ghost in my skin
And it's killing me

[Verse 2]
I dance with devils in my sleep
They serenade me in the deep
Another high, another low
I'm not sure which way to go

I stitched my hope into the seams
Of broken bones and dead-end dreams
You tore the light out of my sky
Now I’m too numb to even cry

[Pre-Chorus]
You said that pain was art —
But I’m no canvas, I’m just damage
Every beat of my heart
Is another echo in the wreckage

[Chorus]
There's a ghost in my skin
And it’s wearing my face
Whispers all of my sins
In a voice I can't erase
I'm a shadow of what I used to be
Just a glitch in the memory
There’s a ghost in my skin
And it's killing me

[Bridge] (screamed/spoken)
Don’t tell me I’ll be fine
When the void is by design
I scream but I’m on mute
You lit the match and watched me burn through

[Breakdown] (heavy, distorted guitars)
(Yeah!)
Rip me open — show the code
Rewrite my soul before I implode
I'm not alive, I just exist
Buried deep in the noise and the mist

[Final Chorus]
There’s a ghost in my skin
And it’s wearing my face
It’s the part you left in
When you vanished without a trace
I'm a glitch in a perfect tragedy
A memory you chose not to keep
There’s a ghost in my skin...
And it’s haunting me
