Your Ghost that haunts me

[piano with slow buildup]


[chorus]
your ghost still haunts me
memories of us I keep in the basement 
make their way into my nightmares 

[verse 1]
so many words I can’t take back 
attack me and leave me paralyzed in regret 

agony fills the void and silence 
of my mind and all I find is traces of our past

but it’s time that I let you go 
forever forgotten I should’ve done this a long time ago 

I’ve accepted you will never be mine again 
the tether of our souls have been cut 

but I still feel the vibration from the night your bedroom door slammed shut and I walked out 

[chorus] [amplified singing]
your ghost still haunts me
memories of us I keep in the basement 
make their way into my nightmares 

I can’t stay in this cell that I put myself in
I’m leaving this hell and won’t be coming back again
tell me when I can finally feel peace from within
I’m feeling better but when I close my eyes 
I can still feel your nails glide across my skin
and I love the way they foxtrot 
taking my breath away 

[soft vocals]
life stops frozen in time 
your not mine 
time to let you go but I can’t but I’ll try

and I’m sad to say I might feel like this until I die 

[intense high energy singing]
UNTIL I DIE!!!!
UNTIL I DIE!!!

[instruments fade]

[instruments build back up]
[chorus]

your ghost still haunts me
memories of us I keep in the basement 
make their way into my nightmares 


I still love you baby you’re my guiding light 
my soulmate, my everything but now everything’s erased 
dead and gone 
buried in an ancient tomb 
you don’t know me anymore but I still know you
