Ghosts of Goodbye

(Verse 1)

You were my sun, the light in my sky,

But every shadow whispered the truth in a lie.

You had your dreams, painted bright like a star,

But I was just a dream you left in the car.

(Pre-Chorus)

Now here I am, holding on to what’s broken,

Searching for words that you never have spoken.

I’m just a ghost in the halls of your heart,

Once a part of you, now we’re worlds apart.

(Chorus)

Why’d you wanna delete me, erase all the love?

I’m piecing together the memories of us.

It hurts like a wound that just won’t ever heal,

But I'm learning to dance with this pain that's so real.

If you’d just tell me why, I could let go,

But silence is the storm that refuses to show.

You were my mom, but where did we stray?

Now I’m just a ghost, fading further away.

(Verse 2)

You had your battles, I know it ain't easy,

But it cuts like glass when you’re feeling so breezy.

Every “I love you” felt like a sweet disguise,

But now it’s just heartache behind all those lies.

(Pre-Chorus)

So I gather my pieces, the love and the pain,

Learning to dance in the soft summer rain.

You’ll always be part of this song in my soul,

But I’m taking back the pieces that you stole.

(Chorus)

Why’d you wanna delete me, erase all the love?

I’m piecing together the memories of us.

It hurts like a wound that just won’t ever heal,

But I'm learning to dance with this pain that's so real.

If you’d just tell me why, I could let go,

But silence is the storm that refuses to show.

You were my mom, but where did we stray?

Now I’m just a ghost, fading further away.

(Bridge)

And maybe one day, I’ll find my way back,

To the love that we lost, to what we both lack.

But till then I’m learning, putting me first,

Breaking the ties, unwrapping this curse.

(Chorus)

Why’d you wanna delete me, erase all the love?

I’m piecing together the memories of us.

It hurts like a wound that just won’t ever heal,

But I'm learning to dance with this pain that's so real.

If you’d just tell me why, I could let go,

But silence is the storm that refuses to show.

You were my mom, but where did we stray?

Now I’m just a ghost, fading further away.

(Outro)

So here’s to the lessons, the heartache, the scars,

I’ll carry your love, but I’ll find my own stars.

With each step I take, I’ll learn to be free,

From the shadows you left, I’m reclaiming me.
