Ghost in the glass

I watched the sky collapse behind your eyes

You were fading like a flame in the rain

Every whisper was a last goodbye

But I still held on through the pain

You said, "I’m tired of being strong for everyone"

But you never let me break with you

I’m screaming at a shadow that won’t respond

Still tracing your name in the dew

And I can't breathe

When the silence speaks louder than you ever did

You haunt me

In the space where your heartbeat used to live

You're the ghost in the glass

The crack I can't look past

You were gone before you left

Now I’m drowning in your absence

I reach but I can't hold

The warmth that turned so cold

Are you somewhere I can’t go?

Or just too far to know?

I sleepwalk through memories at night

Your voice a thread I can’t unwind

Every dream's a rewind on repeat

Where I lose you every time

And I wear your silence like a chain

I want to break but need the pain

'Cause it's all I have to prove

You were ever here with me

I still bleed

Where your words carved holes inside my chest

You freed me

But I was never ready for the end

You're the ghost in the glass

The crack I can't look past

You were gone before you left

Now I’m drowning in your absence

I reach but I can't hold

The warmth that turned so cold

Are you somewhere I can’t go?

Or just too far to know?

I burn the pictures, but you're still here

In every mirror, every tear

You were the light, now you’re the fear

And I can’t make you disappear

You're the ghost in the glass

Reflection from the past

I see you, but you’re not there

Just a breath lost in the air

I reach but I can't hold

The warmth that turned so cold

Are you somewhere I can’t go?

Or just too far to know?
