[Verse 1]
The silence holds your name like smoke
Whispers through the walls you broke
I trace your shadow in the dust
But every echo fades to rust
[Pre-Chorus]
You were there, then you were gone
Like a dream I held too long
Now the night just drags me through
Every version of you
[Chorus]
You're a flicker in the fog, a breath I can't reclaim
A ghost beneath my skin, dancing in the rain
And every step I take, you're just a step away
But further every day…
You're the ghost I couldn't save
[Verse 2]
Your voice still lingers in the dark
A phantom heartbeat in my heart
I reach for you in empty air
Pretending you're still somewhere there
[Pre-Chorus]
Time won't wash you from these halls
You're the writing on my walls
Still I chase you like a flame
Calling out your name
[Chorus]
You're a flicker in the fog, a breath I can't reclaim
A ghost beneath my skin, dancing in the rain
And every step I take, you're just a step away
But further every day…
You're the ghost I couldn't save
[Bridge]
If I could hold you one last time
Would you fade or would you shine?
I’d give this haunted life of mine
To turn back time...
[Final Chorus]
You're a flicker in the fog, a breath I can’t let go
A song stuck on repeat, soft and low
And every night I dream, I see your face again
But morning steals you then…
You're the ghost I call a friend
