Ghosts in the Silence

[Intro]
(Slow, distorted synth bass pulse. The sound of high heels clicking on concrete, echoing. A single match strikes.)

[Verse 1]
The floorboards didn't creak when I came home
I’ve been a ghost in these halls since you left me alone
You kept the jewelry, I kept the spare key
Funny how silence sounds like a symphony
I’m standing by the bed where you lie
Watching the moonlight catch the corner of your eye
You’re dreaming of her, I’m dreaming of red
Better be careful how you tread

[Pre-Chorus]
Shadows dance where we used to kiss
Silent screams I can't dismiss
Echoes whisper secrets old
Stories that are left untold
They say revenge is best served cold
I like the heat, the fire or so I been told

[Chorus]
Burning bridges in the night
 Radge rises, turns out lights
Hearts collide in a storm of fire
Loving you was my desire
But now I see the truth so clear
Lost my peace when you disappeared
In this ghost town of my mind
Hope and hurt are intertwined

[Bridge]
A match sparks, shadows ignite
Burned behind these haunted nights
Hold my breath, swallow fears
Drowning in the tide of tears

[Outro]
Echoes fade into the dark
Lost the beat, lost the spark
Where you end and I begin
This love was a violator's sin
