Ghost of What We Used to Be

In the silence of the night, where shadows creep,

I hear the echoes of promises we couldn't keep.

Footprints linger on the path we used to roam,

Now every step I take feels like I'm walking home alone.

You were the light that filled my darkest days,

But now those colors faded into shades of gray.

I remember laughter, the way you held my hand,

Now I’m just a ship lost in a desolate land.

Heartbeats, whispers, lost in the distance,

Trying to find a way to silence this persistence.

Dreams we built are crumbling at my feet,

Caught in the storm of a love now obsolete.

Oh, I’m a ghost of what we used to be,

A flickering flame with no warmth, can’t you see?

Love turned to ashes, memories in the breeze,

Can’t escape this heartache, can’t find my peace.

Midnight conversations replay like a song,

But every note is haunting, like I did you wrong.

You were my melody, the rhythm in my heart,

Now I’m just a prisoner of a love torn apart.

Heartbeats, whispers, lost in the distance,

Trying to find a way to silence this persistence.

Fragments of moments scattered like the stars,

Each one a reminder of the love that’s now scars.

Oh, I’m a ghost of what we used to be,

A flickering flame with no warmth, can’t you see?

Love turned to ashes, memories in the breeze,

Can’t escape this heartache, can’t find my peace.

If I could turn back time, I’d hold on tight,

Rewrite the story in the soft moonlight.

But time’s an ocean, waves carry the past,

And I’m drowning in a love that could never last.

Oh, I’m a ghost of what we used to be,

A flickering flame with no warmth, can’t you see?

Love turned to ashes, memories in the breeze,

Can’t escape this heartache, can’t find my peace.

So here’s to the moments, the laughter and pain,

I’ll carry your memory like a drop of rain.

In the silence of the night, I’ll still feel your glow,

But I’ll walk this path alone, where lost loves go.
