Ghost of You

**Verse 1**

Silence echoes through these empty rooms

Walking halls where shadows loom

I call your name but hear no sound

These walls just echo back around

Every corner holds your face

This haunted house, my resting place

**Pre-Chorus**

'Cause this mansion built of memories and lies

Has your ghost reflected in my eyes

I'm crawling through the darkness deep within

Searching for the truth that should have been

**Chorus**

Why can't we love one another?

I don't want no other, baby, it's always been you

For better or for worse now, if nothing lasts forever

Why am I still chasing the ghost of you?

Why am I still chasing the ghost of you?

My mind moved on but my heart won't break through

So I'm stuck with the ghost of you

**Verse 2**

Howling winds that call your name

Drowning in this endless flame

Every breath tastes like goodbye

But I can't seem to say goodbye

**[Guitar Solo]**

**Bridge**

They say it's just inside my head

But you're the ghost I can't forget

We're better off, they always say

But you won't seem to fade away

**Final Chorus (Anthemic Repetition)**

Why can't we love one another?

Why can't we love one another?

I'm stuck with the ghost of you

I'm stuck with the ghost of you

I'm stuck with the ghost of you
