Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Found my yearbook in a closet box
Dust on the cover
Ink still sharp
Every scribbled heart and inside joke
Hits like it’s breaking me apart
You in your letterman
Crooked grin
Her in that thrift-store
Glitter dress
Swore we were bigger than this town
Now it’s just names that I miss
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you make it out to some bright coast
Or stay where the winters bite?
I trace the pages like they might talk
But they’re frozen in that night
[Chorus]
Yearbook ghosts
All these faces in the glow
Are you out there getting lost?
Are you ever coming home?
Ten years gone
I still mouth your old nicknames
Are you chasing something wild?
Or did the wild stay the same?
Yearbook ghosts
Will I ever see you close?
Or are we
Just yearbook ghosts?
[Verse 2]
You wrote “call me when we’re twenty-five”
Number faded
I still try
Type it in
Then backspace slow
Scared of “who’s this?” on the other side
I see your prom shoes
Silver straps
His tie that never sat quite straight
We swore the world would know our names
Did the world learn how to wait?
[Pre-Chorus]
Did you crash in tiny airport bars
Laughing at the late-night flights?
Or trace the same old country roads
Counting out the porch light nights?
[Chorus]
Yearbook ghosts
All these faces in the glow
Are you out there getting lost?
Are you ever coming home?
Ten years gone
I still mouth your old nicknames
Are you chasing something wild?
Or did the wild stay the same?
Yearbook ghosts
Will I ever see you close?
Or are we
Just yearbook ghosts?
[Bridge]
Maybe you’ve got kids that look like you (oh)
Maybe you changed your last name too
Maybe you dyed your hair jet black
Burned that whole small-town soundtrack
I’m still here talking to this page
Like it’s a doorway
Not a cage
If I saw you on a crowded train
Would you still say
My name? (hey)
[Chorus]
Yearbook ghosts
All these faces in the glow
Are you out there getting lost?
Are you ever coming home?
Ten years gone
I still mouth your old nicknames
Are you chasing something wild?
Or did the wild stay the same?
Yearbook ghosts
Will I ever see you close?
Or are we
Just yearbook ghosts?
[Outro]
Found my yearbook in a closet box
Left it open on the floor
If you ever find your way back here
I’ll be waiting at that door

Style
pop, Moody emo-pop with female vocals over shimmery electro textures; verses ride a tight, mid-tempo groove with pulsing sidechain synths and close-mic’d, almost whispered delivery, then the chorus blooms with wide pads, octave-doubled leads, and stacked harmonies. Subtle distorted guitar swells add grit in the pre-chorus; final hook strips to vocal, soft keys, and a ticking percussion loop for a nostalgic fade., emo, electro

Prompt
Female, emo, pop, electro. A song about looking back in the yearbook and seeing all the faces and people I knew. Wondering what crazy adventures they’re having now 10 years later. Will I ever see them
