about

This is a song about moving on, but not because you want to; because you are forced to because you finally realize that the person you once loved is truly out of your life now. You become a shell of a person; a ghost.

lyrics

Hey, look at me;
Am I still real to you?
'Cause you, you look past me
Like I'm a ghost you see right through.

So I drift through my memories,
But those soon will end.

No matter how long I prepare myself
For the inevitable end,
Your changing heart still hurts like
A knife through my chest.
But I'm a ghost,
So maybe I won't feel it.

Hey, can you see me?
Or am I already gone?
I don't even seem to haunt you,
And the night's already dawn.

So I drift to another place,
But I still don't feel at home.

No matter how long I prepare myself
For the inevitable end,
Your changing heart still hurts like
A knife through my chest.
But I'm a ghost,
So maybe I won't feel it.

I dream about you every night,
And when I wake, I call your name.
But you're not there;
You've been gone for ages.
I've been gone for ages.

No matter how long I convince myself
That this is not the end,
You took my heart and left a hole
In my chest.
But I'm a ghost,
So maybe I won't feel it.

I'm a ghost,
So I know I won't feel it.
