Verse 1)
It’s 3 A.M., your ghost in my sheets,
Perfume fades but the memory repeats.
I swore I’d let you go,
But the silence got too loud,
Now I’m chasing shadows in the crowd.
You got a hold that I can’t kill,
Every hit of you I feel still.
I try to drown you out in smoke,
But baby, you’re the drug I never broke.
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
You were poison wrapped in heaven,
And I took you every night.
Now my heart’s still tryna detox,
But it never gets it right.
⸻
(Chorus)
You’re still in my system,
Running through my veins.
Can’t tell if I miss you,
Or just miss the pain.
Every time I touch someone new,
I still taste you, I still taste you.
You’re still in my system,
Baby, I can’t lie.
Even when I’m numb,
You stay in my mind.
Guess I’ll never be clean from you,
You’re the high I can’t undo.
⸻
(Verse 2)
I see your face in every strobe light,
Your name bleeds through my phone at night.
Every body I touch feels wrong,
You’re the lyric in every song.
I let the city swallow me whole,
Tryna burn what you stole.
But every whisper, every sound,
Still pulls me back to the underground.
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
You were sin in slow motion,
A prayer and a crime.
I keep confessin’ to your ghost,
Like forgiveness takes time.
⸻
(Chorus)
You’re still in my system,
Running through my veins.
Can’t tell if I miss you,
Or just miss the pain.
Every time I touch someone new,
I still taste you, I still taste you.
You’re still in my system,
Baby, I can’t lie.
Even when I’m numb,
You stay in my mind.
Guess I’ll never be clean from you,
You’re the high I can’t undo.
⸻
(Bridge)
I’m addicted to your silence,
The ache feels like peace.
Even though you’re gone,
You still don’t release.
Every breath feels borrowed,
Every night’s a repeat,
Of you — of me — of everything between.
(Soft falsetto ad-libs)
“Still in me… still in me… oh…”
⸻
(Final Chorus – slower, echoing)
You’re still in my system,
Still in my skin.
Every time I try to leave,
You pull me back in.
Guess I’ll never be clean from you,
You’re the high I can’t undo.
(Outro – whispered)
You’re still in my system…
Still in my system…
And I don’t wanna lose the pain.
(Fade out with heartbeat / synth pulse)
