woke up /
where are the echoes? / i can’t hear you /
your voice / only in my mind /
fog lifted /
where have you gone? / i can’t see you /
your face is blurry / close my eyes /
open them again /
gone /
this house / empty /
powers vanquished / memories faded /
pain on repeat / no more /
the curse broken /
begged for you to own my soul / a possession /
thought your ghost was shiny and true /
but your kind of love was just an apparition /
believed you when you said you’d stay /
now the rust and decay is all that remains /
the loss of your spirit / stings /
look back one last time /
but this boy’s leaving the haunting /
