Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 Morning shivers on the glass Breath like fog that doesn’t pass Footsteps echo out of sync Hands reach through the kitchen sink Streetlights hum in broad daylight Faces pale as blinking white I can hear the night still speak Hiding in the weekday weak Pre-Chorus Call my name across the room Two replies inside the bloom Chorus Waking ghosts, we haunt the sun Half-returned and half-undone Paper souls in living skin Drifting where the dream’s been in Waking ghosts, we breathe and fade Between the light and what it made Hold me close before I split— Anchor me to something fit Verse 2 Coffee tastes like yesterday Clocks move sideways, lose their way Mirrors open, let us through I am me and someone new Crosswalks whisper, traffic prays Silence threads the busy haze Shadow stitched to every bone Moves a beat beyond my own Pre-Chorus Call my name and hear it twice Warm as breath and cold as ice Chorus Waking ghosts, we haunt the sun Half-returned and half-undone Paper souls in living skin Drifting where the dream’s been in Waking ghosts, we breathe and fade Between the light and what it made Hold me close before I split— Anchor me to something fit Bridge Say it once—pull me near Say it twice—clear the fear Touch the pulse—choose the real Let the echo learn to heal Final Chorus Waking ghosts, we choose the day Fold the night and put it away Stitch the dream to living thread Raise the quiet, wake the dead Waking ghosts, we learn the name Of every part we tried to tame Hand in hand, we make a host— Whole at last, the waking ghost
