Lyrics

I took your shirt off the chair today Still smells like your skin God, i hate it Told my friends iโ€™m fine But honestly Iโ€™m dancing with your ghost at 2 am I hate myself for loving you.. You said love should feel like freedom But iโ€™m trapped in what we used to be Your silence wraps around my neck Like a thread i canโ€™t break clean Deleted your number But i know it by heart Tore up the letters But i kept the lines Where you wrote โ€œi was your home...โ€ Now thereโ€™s nothing left to hold Just the ghost of โ€œalmostโ€ We burned out like a cigarette Still warm on my throat I stripped your name off every wall But my skin still hums your echo You left without goodbye But i still carry your shadow My playlist still plays all your songs Guess the algorithm knows iโ€™m lying Each photo i scroll past Cuts like a knife dressed up as art I post like iโ€™m glowing Like iโ€™m gold But the caption never says the ache You said i needed space to grow But space just feels like break Iโ€™m not mad... Just empty You were my whole damn sky Now every star Feels out of place And i canโ€™t remember why Now thereโ€™s nothing left to hold But the ghost of โ€œalmostโ€ We burned out like a cigarette Still warm on my throat I stripped your name off every wall But my skin still hums your echo You left without goodbye But i still carry your shadow I hate myself for loving you But i still dream 'bout the lovin' you do Tried to unlove you a hundred times But my heartโ€™s not done yet ]canโ€™t break free from what we were You haunt every โ€œmove onโ€ i try I wanna run But i just run back every time I still wear your breath like velvet On nights the sheets feel too wide And i lie, saying iโ€™ve let go But my hands still remember your light Mmm I lie, just once... Thereโ€™s nothing left to hold Just the weight of โ€œwhat ifโ€ Still waiting for a message Youโ€™ll never hit โ€œsendโ€ You walked away so clean But iโ€™m still wearing your goodbye like skin Still here... Still yours... Even if you never call again... Just once... I wish you'd come back....... Just once... (just once)
