Ghosts 5:06

INTRO

VERSE 1

You wrote a novel in the margins
Of a sentence I barely said
Dropped a match into the silence
Watched the wildfire in your head

You kept circling every comma
Like a crime scene in the dark
I just asked a simple question
You were hunting for a spark

PRE-CHORUS

You keep reading between the lines
But there's nothing written there

CHORUS

You're seeing ghosts in empty rooms
Hearing thunder in the afternoon
Every word becomes a weapon in your mind
But I never drew the line

You're fighting shadows on the wall
Swinging hard at nothing at all
If you're looking for a war tonight
You won't find it here

You're seeing ghosts

VERSE 2

You said my tone was confrontational
Said the tension filled the air
But I'm sitting in a quiet room
Wondering how we got here

You keep digging for intention
In the space between the text
Like a code you need to crack
Or a secret to detect

PRE-CHORUS

You keep reading between the lines
But there's nothing written there

CHORUS

You're seeing ghosts in empty rooms
Hearing thunder in the afternoon
Every word becomes a weapon in your mind
But I never drew the line

You're fighting shadows on the wall
Swinging hard at nothing at all
If you're looking for a war tonight
You won't find it here

You're seeing ghosts

BRIDGE

I said less and you heard more
Than I ever meant to say
Now you're building whole disasters
From the words I threw away

You can keep the interrogation
You can keep your theories too
I was only passing through

BREAK

FINAL CHORUS

You're seeing ghosts in empty rooms
Writing stories that were never true
Every silence turns into a crime
In the courtroom of your mind

You're fighting shadows on the wall
Swinging hard at nothing at all
If you're looking for a war tonight
You won't find it here

You're seeing ghosts

OUTRO
