A ghost of you walks through my heart
In my deepest thoughts like a hallway you roam
I thought I let you behind
I thought you were the remnant of a dream
Lost while I was waking
I feel myself walking away
I feel your eyes following
I feel your heart beat from across the room
“Give me a chance” you say
“One more shot, I’ll do better. I’ll love only you”
You lie
You always lie
Your forked tongue stabbing at me
Feeling the puncture wounds in my back
I always believed you
Believed you love me
Loved
It wasn’t love
It wasn’t anything
The dream will fade
They always do
When you wake from a nightmare you always feel safe
I was safe in your arms
but never in your heart
Never was my heart safe with you
Goodbye, my love
Goodbye
When he leaves I won’t return
I’m not that man anymore
The man who loved you unconditionally
I know my worth
A ghost of you is all that remains in my heart
I’ll hire a priest to fix that
