GHOSTS I HAVEN’T MET YET

🎵 GHOSTS I HAVEN’T MET YET

(Emotional Rock • Blues Storytelling • Cinematic)

⸻

🌑 Intro — Soft Guitar, Slow Echo

There’s a thousand shadows in my mind…

Some I’ve known.

Some I’ve lost.

Some ain’t even happened yet.

But they’re all speakin’…

And I’m listenin’.

⸻

🎤 Hook (Chorus) — Powerful Rock-Blues Belt

I’m haunted by the ghosts I haven’t met yet,

All the love and the pain I still ain’t felt yet.

Every step forward is a memory in debt,

I’m living with the ghosts I haven’t met yet.

Yeah, they whisper in the dark, “You ain’t healed from this part…”

And I’m tryin’, but I ain’t there yet.

Still walkin’ with the ghosts I haven’t met.

⸻

🎸 Verse 1 — Storytelling Blues

There’s a ghost of the man I’m tryin’ to be,

Sitting on my shoulder sayin’, “Boy, follow me.”

And the ghost of mistakes I buried deep in my chest,

Still shows up at night when I’m tryin’ to rest.

There’s a ghost of the love I lost too soon,

A ghost of the child I was in my old bedroom.

And the ghost of the future keeps knockin’ at my door,

But I’m scared of what I’ll find, scared to want more.

⸻

🎤 Hook (Chorus) — Bigger, Rawer

I’m haunted by the ghosts I haven’t met yet,

All the love and the pain I still ain’t felt yet.

Every step forward is a memory in debt,

I’m living with the ghosts I haven’t met yet.

Yeah, they whisper in the dark, “You ain’t healed from this part…”

And I’m tryin’, but I ain’t there yet.

Still walkin’ with the ghosts I haven’t met.

⸻

⚡ Verse 2 — Rock Build, Emotional Punch

There’s ghosts from my parents, all their battles and scars,

Ghosts of the nights when I prayed to the stars.

Ghosts of the choices I made on the fly,

And the ones I avoided ’cause I was scared to try.

There’s a ghost with my smile… and a ghost with my rage,

Two different versions of me on the same damn stage.

They argue in the mirror ’bout the life I expect—

One says “run,” one says “fight,”

But neither’s right yet.

⸻

🌧 Bridge — Stripped Back, Soulful Blues

Maybe ghosts ain’t meant to scare us…

Maybe they’re the maps that prepare us.

For the love we’ll earn,

For the pain we’ll burn,

For the lessons that return…

Even when we ain’t met ’em yet.

⸻

🔥 Final Hook (Chorus + Outro)

I’m haunted by the ghosts I haven’t met yet,

All the love and the pain I still ain’t felt yet.

Every step forward is a memory in debt,

I’m living with the ghosts I haven’t met yet.

Yeah, they whisper in the dark, “You ain’t healed from this part…”

And I’m tryin’, but I ain’t there yet.

Still walkin’ with the ghosts I haven’t met…

🎸 (Guitar solo fades like a heartbeat slowing)

Ghosts I haven’t met yet…

But I will.

One day.
