It feels like the world is weaponized against me,
Everywhere I look, it's your ghost that I see.
Every street corner, every shadow in the night,
Screams out your name, while I fade from sight.
I've got nowhere to hide, I can't break free,
Everything, everything is rewriting you and me.

I lock myself in the car, twist the key in the slot,
The radio bleeds out, hitting the exact raw spot.
That bittersweet melody, the anthem of our final night,
It paralyzes my chest, squeezing the air out tight.
I rip the volume knob down, gripping the wheel until it hurts,
Choking on the words that we never got to blurt.

Driving down the highway, billboards suffocating the view,
Giant neon promises, but none of them are true.
Massive letters mocking me, screaming about 'forevermore',
While I'm just a wreck, bleeding out on the floor.
The world keeps on spinning in its bright, cruel display,
While I am buried alive under the ash of yesterday.

In the grocery store, I stare blankly at the shelf,
Two strangers walk past, whispering secrets to themselves.
I catch fragments of a laugh, a phrase you used to say,
And it tears open the stitches of a wound from yesterday.
Even the voices of strangers are dressed up like you,
In a crowded room, I am freezing right through.

Is it just coincidence, or is my mind completely broken?
Manifesting your ghost in every word that is spoken?
A sick cosmic trap, engineered just for me,
'Cause the whole wide world is breathing your memory.

Even in the dead silence...
I still hear you.
The world won't let me forget...
Every single day...

I turn on the TV just to drown out the dead air, But the first thing I see is a ghost of what we were. A couple laughing, pouring coffee, sharing a morning kiss, God, it’s a violent reminder of everything I miss. I smash the power button, the screen flashes black, But the darkness just stares, and it’s dragging me back. It feels like the world is weaponized against me, Everywhere I look, it's your ghost that I see. Every street corner, every shadow in the night, Screams out your name, while I fade from sight. I've got nowhere to hide, I can't break free, Everything, everything is rewriting you and me. I lock myself in the car, twist the key in the slot, The radio bleeds out, hitting the exact raw spot.
