Just a Ghost

DeadLuve

I kept your sweater in my drawer
Still smells like you a little more
You looked at me said don't be scared
But your hands shook like you never cared

I told myself it's just the rain
But it's your voice inside my veins
You kissed me soft and turned away
And left your silence where I stay

You said you wouldn't break me
But you did it so slow
Now I'm drowning in the things
That you'll never wanna know
You said you wouldn't leave me
But your eyes let it show
I was home to you once
Now I'm just a ghost

I wear your lies like perfume skin
They burn but I still breathe them in
You built a world that felt like mine
Then watched it crumble line by line
Every word you threw still bleeds
And love can't grow from shattered seeds
You held my heart, you dropped it cold
The kind of hurt that never grows up

You said you wouldn't break me
But you did it so slow
Now I'm drowning in the things
That you'll never wanna know
You said you wouldn't leave me
But your eyes let it show
I was home to you once
Now I'm just a ghost

Maybe you forgot the way
Used to trace my scars
Now you're somewhere miles away
Pretending you don't know who we are

You said you wouldn't break me
But you did it so slow
Now I'm drowning in the things
That you'll never wanna know
You said you wouldn't leave me
But your eyes let it show
I was home to you once
Now I'm just a ghost
