**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
