Why Did You Go Ghost?”
(Soulful R&B / Contemporary Ballad)
Verse 1
Good morning for the third day in a row,
Still no call back, still no hello.
You told me we’d talk when you got back home,
But I’ve been standing here feeling alone.
We used to spend hours talking away,
Laughing and vibing almost every day.
The energy was different, something felt real,
You became a safe place, a space to heal.
You told me we were more than friends,
A connection you said would never end.
So help me understand what changed overnight,
How did something so good lose its light?
Pre-Chorus
I gave you trust, I gave you time,
Shared parts of me I usually hide.
Now I’m left with silence where your voice used to be,
Trying to figure out what happened to “we.”
Chorus
How do you spend time with me,
Tell me I’m important, tell me I’m your peace?
How do we build something that feels so strong,
Then one day you just move along?
We had amazing energy, chemistry, and trust,
At least that’s how it felt to us.
If you want to leave, just let me know,
But don’t love me close… then go ghost.

Verse 2
Good morning, King, I prayed for your day,
Asked God to guide you along the way.
I see your heart and the good you do,
Always showing up when people need you.
That’s why this hurts, that’s why I’m confused,
Because the man I knew wouldn’t leave me used.
I don’t need perfection, I don’t need forever,
Just honesty and respect, that’s all I ever wanted.
You became distant, and I felt the shift,
Like holding onto something that no longer exists.
I tried to talk, but you went quiet instead,
Leaving unanswered questions inside my head.
Pre-Chorus
I’m not angry, just disappointed and hurt,
Trying to understand what made us reverse.
Because real friendship doesn’t disappear this way,
Without a word, without a reason to stay.
Chorus
How do you spend time with me,
Tell me I’m important, tell me I’m your peace?
How do we build something that feels so strong,
Then one day you just move along?
We had amazing energy, chemistry, and trust,
At least that’s how it felt to us.
If you want to leave, just let me know,
But don’t love me close… then go ghost.

Bridge (Spoken Word)
Listen…
I don’t regret loving you.
I don’t regret showing up for you.
I don’t regret believing in what we had.
But I deserved a conversation.
I deserved honesty.
I deserved more than silence.
If your feelings changed, I could’ve handled that.
If life got heavy, I would’ve understood that.
But disappearing without a word?
That’s the part that broke me.
⸻
Final Chorus
How do you spend time with me,
Look in my eyes and make me believe?
How do you become part of my heart,
Then walk away without explaining your part?
I’ll heal from this, I know I’m strong,
I’ll find my peace and carry on.
But I’ll never understand it though,
How we had something so beautiful…
Then you went ghost
Outro
I love you, friend.
I always will.
Maybe our connection wasn’t an accident.
Maybe it was a lesson.
Maybe it was a blessing.
