**Verse 1:**
Ashes of my life scattered on the ground
Everything I built came crashing down
Doctor said six months, maybe less to live
Reached into the darkness, had nothing left to give
Blood is thicker than water, that's what they said
But when I needed them, they left me for dead
Disease is eating through my bones tonight
No mother, no father, just death's cold bite
**Chorus:**
I'm the ghost they left behind
Erased from every heart and mind
When I fell, they turned away
Now I haunt these streets where shadows stay
No salvation, no way out
Just the silence of my screams and shouts
They abandoned me to rot alone
Now the darkness is my only home
**Verse 2:**
My body's failing while the city sleeps
Death is crawling, digging deep
One voice I trusted, one final call
Said they couldn't watch me die and fall
Loyalty died with a dial tone's hum
Now I'm fading, broken and numb
They carved their names into my scars
Left me dying beneath dead stars
**Chorus:**
I'm the ghost they left behind
Erased from every heart and mind
When I fell, they turned away
Now I haunt these streets where shadows stay
No salvation, no way out
Just the silence of my screams and shouts
They abandoned me to rot alone
Now the darkness is my only home
**Bridge:**
(Maybe I was poisoned all along)
(Maybe that's why no one stayed)
(But when death is at your door)
(You remember every face that walked away)
My body's rotting to the ground
Feel the reaper closing in now
I don't need their hollow prayers
I'll die alone in my despair
**Breakdown:**
Left. Me. Bleeding.
Left. Me. Screaming.
Left. Me. Nothing.
Left. Me. DYING.
**Final Chorus:**
I'm the ghost they left behind
Carved my name in blood this time
When I begged, they turned away
Now their guilt will never fade away
No redemption, no way back
Just the void, forever black
They abandoned me to die alone
Now my suffering is set in stone
**Outro:**
In the void... I'm home
In the void... alone
In the void... I'm gone
(In the void...)
