Letter to a ghost

Here’s what’s new, I’m so damn lost,

Kind of funny if you think I never wanted to be found.

I got to laugh about the irony,

As I light up my last cigarette.

Yeah, I didn’t quit yet.

Let’s take a walk,

It’s such a beautiful night.

You should see the sky, so dark and clear,

And that’s the suit I’m wearing inside.

Tonight,

I’m writing a letter to a ghost,

Words you’ll never hear,

Notes you’ll never feel.

As if you would even care.

Look at those flies dancing

Around that broken light post.

I know exactly how that party’s

Going to end.

I’ve been there.

I’m not really sure where I’m going,

And I don’t think it even matters.

I just know I won’t be taking you with me.

Tonight,

I’m writing a letter to a ghost,

Words you’ll never hear,

Notes you’ll never feel.

As if you would even care.

I’ve just deleted your last message,

Got rid of your photos.

Phone’s locked in my pocket,

And just like that, you’re locked out my life.

I’m keeping my bed busy,

And it feels kind of pathetic

Just not to think about it,

But it’s better than the static.

I wish I could just stop to care,

But all I can think about is

How you just threw away that kind of love

You always deserved.

I’m writing a letter to a ghost,

Words you’ll never hear,

Scars you’ll never feel.

As if you would even care.

I’m not really sure what’s next,

And I don’t think I even care.

I just know it won’t be you and me,

Only echoes in the air.

I’ve just deleted your last message,

Burned all our photos.

Blocked your number,

And just like that, I’m out of your life.

Yeah, I’m out of your life.

I’m the ghost.
