Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Soldier)
Boots hang over the guardrail
Dog tags cold on my tongue
City hum like a far-off war
And my hands feel too young
One more step from the silence
One more breath from the fall
Pulled the pin on my own heartbeat
Yeah
I'm done with it all
[Verse 2]
(Ghost)
You still taste dust from that valley
See my blood on your sleeve
You keep stitching up old nightmares
With a thread made of grief
I hear you curse my picture
Shoved face-down in a drawer
You think leaving is surrender
But you've fought this before (hey)
[Chorus]
(Soldier & Ghost)
Get your hand
Off the trigger line
You ain't done
You ain’t out of time
Every scar on your shaking skin
Is a map that can lead you back in
You can hate me
You can scream my name
But don't throw
All our hurt away
If you fall from this rusted rail tonight
You just pass me your pain in the light
[Verse 3]
(Soldier)
You left pieces in my helmet
Letters burned in my fist
You were twenty in that photo
I'm still stuck in that ditch
Sometimes I drive past your mother’s
Park two blocks down the street
Can't look her in the window
With your boots on my feet
[Bridge]
(Ghost)
I never asked you to carry
Every ghost in that squad
You are more than your bad decisions
You are more than the shots
Drop the weight
Let it hit concrete
Let the echo be mine
If you go
They lose you twice
First to war
Then tonight
(Soldier)
Then why does every mirror
Look like a rifle sight?
[Chorus]
(Soldier & Ghost)
Get your hand
Off the trigger line
You ain’t wrong
For wanting to hide
But that ache in your chest like a drum
Means there's still one more breath yet to come
You can hate me
You can curse the sky
But don't trade
All your love to die
If you step from this rusted rail tonight
You just paint all their mornings in night
[Outro]
(Ghost)
Call your brother from this parking lot
Tell your dad you made it home
Tell that girl you lost on purpose
You were scared to be known
(Soldier)
I slide back from the edge a bit
Drop the round to the ground
(Ghost)
I was never your reason to die
I’m the reason you stick around (oh)

Style
rock, Gritty mid-tempo rock ballad, male vocals as the soldier and airy female vocals as the ghost. Clean guitar and tom-heavy drums in the verses, chorus erupts into overdriven power chords and stacked harmonies. Subtle reverb-drenched lead guitar weaves around the ghost’s lines; bridge strips to vocal and distant guitar swells, then final chorus hits harder with octave guitars and an anthemic outro.
