Verse 1:
In the quiet of the night, shadows creep,
Whispers of memories that cut so deep,
I reach for your touch, but it’s gone like the dawn,
Left with a silence, a love that’s withdrawn.
Pre-Chorus:
Time fades the colors, but the pain remains,
Haunted by laughter, now echoes in chains,
I wear my heart like a scar on my sleeve,
Searching for solace in what I can’t retrieve.
Chorus:
Feelings aren’t real,
They’re a reaction to a perceived wound
That’s never been healed.
A ghost in my mind,
A shadow that lingers,
A love so unkind.
Verse 2:
Walking through dreams that we once called our own,
Each step feels like glass, and I’m all alone,
You spoke of forever, but forever’s a lie,
I’m lost in the memories, in tears that won’t dry.
Pre-Chorus:
The heart’s a fragile thing, it beats and it breaks,
It dances in fire, till the silence it makes,
And every “I’m sorry” that we never shared,
Is a note in the song of the love that we bared.
Chorus:
Feelings aren’t real,
They’re a reaction to a perceived wound
That’s never been healed.
A ghost in my mind,
A shadow that lingers,
A love so unkind.
Bridge:
But I’ll gather the pieces, I’ll rise from the fall,
With every heartbeat, I’ll learn to stand tall,
The echoes will fade, though the scars might remain,
From the ashes of sorrow, I’ll dance in the rain.
Chorus:
Feelings aren’t real,
They’re a reaction to a perceived wound
That’s never been healed.
A ghost in my mind,
A shadow that lingers,
A love so unkind.
Outro:
So I’ll carve out a story that’s waiting to be,
A path to the future, away from the sea,
Of feelings unspoken, of love that concealed,
Knowing it’s time to let go and be healed
