[singer A] Hold your breath, hold—hold your breath Don’t say shit, you’ll just regret Lock it up behind your teeth Keep it clean, keep it neat Hold your breath, hold—hold your breath Feel it stack inside your chest If they don’t know, they can’t wreck Hold your breath, hold—hold your breath [transition] [singer B] Shadows dance where the mirrors cracked, Hollow whispers in the midnight black. Skeletons tap Morse code in my chest, Tombstone lungs, can’t catch my breath. Blood moon rises, no hiding from the dread, You can run from the living, but you can’t ghost the dead. [singer A] No rush, no spark Just walking through the dark Hold your breath, hold—hold your breath Even silence sounds like stress Lock it up, don’t let it slip Keep it tight between your lips [instrumental] [singer B] You can’t ghost the dead, they’re already here, Breathing down your neck, screaming in your ear. Buried your sins, but the soil won’t hold, The reaper’s a creditor, collecting your soul. You can’t ghost the dead, no, they never forget, Every shadow's a debt, every grave’s a threat. [singer A] Don’t hold breath, don’t—don’t hold breath Say it wrong, fuck the rest Let it spill, let it land Don’t over-plan, don’t over-plan Don’t hold breath, don’t—don’t hold breath Feel it all in your chest If it breaks, let it break Not everything needs a safe way [melodic interlude] [singer B] Knocking on my coffin like a landlord’s call, Chains on my psyche, dragging down my crawl. Wolves howl symphonies, the pack on my back, Teeth in my memories, nothing intact. Poltergeist laughter, echoes in my head, Try to block ‘em out, but you can’t ghost the dead.
