Residue

Verse 1)

Funny, seeing your name light up my screen

A ghost I thought was buried, a nightmare of a dream

Years of silence broken, what could you want from me now?

Did you run out of mirrors to bow to, take another empty bow?

You crawl back from the wreckage

(Pre-Chorus)

Thinking time has washed away the stain

But I still remember the acid in the rain

Your voice is just a whisper of a lie I used to know

Here it comes again

(Chorus)

Don't you speak my name, it tastes like ash inside your mouth

You are the residue, the poison I spat out

There is nothing left to salvage here, no bridge you didn't burn

This is the final lesson that you will never learn

You're not a memory, you're just a scar I chose to ignore

There's nothing for you here anymore

(Verse 2)

I rebuilt these walls from bedrock, stronger than before

And I don't leave the keys lying beside the goddamn door

You see my peace as weakness, an opening for you

An invitation to rewrite the hell you put me through

You feed on absolution

(Pre-Chorus)

Thinking time has washed away the stain

But I still remember the acid in the rain

Your voice is just a whisper of a lie I used to know

Here it comes again

(Chorus)

Don't you speak my name, it tastes like ash inside your mouth

You are the residue, the poison I spat out

There is nothing left to salvage here, no bridge you didn't burn

This is the final lesson that you will never learn

You're not a memory, you're just a scar I chose to ignore

There's nothing for you here anymore

(Bridge)

This isn't anger anymore

It's just the closing of a door

A quiet, sterile, empty space

Where you can't find a single trace

Of what I was, of what you broke

Your every word is just a joke

The punchline's stale, the laughter's gone

I’ve finally learned to carry on without your weight

(Chorus)

Don't you speak my name, it tastes like ash inside your mouth

You are the residue, the poison I spat out

There is nothing left to salvage here, no bridge you didn't burn

This is the final lesson that you will never learn

You're not a memory, you're just a scar I chose to ignore

There's nothing for you here anymore

(Outro)

Just a scar.

Nothing more.

Delete.

Block.

Forget.

Done.
