about
You said goodbye. They've moved out all their things, but you can't shake the ghost of their memory. You're being haunted.
I wrote this song to focus not on the heartache after a breakup, but the feelings that linger even after you've gotten past the longing and doubt that you've made the right choice for you. It's when you've finally accepted this is exactly where you want to be and you are finally ok on your own and no longer haunted by past love.
lyrics
Day turns to dust.
Night lost its lust.
I cannot see what’s ahead of us.
These halls I walk alone,
Am I really alone?
You’ve been here before.
I’m haunted by your ghost.
I want to see the future now.
Don’t want to be blinded
by circumstances we could have avoided.
The past behind me.
The thought of you is crippling.
Your love has haunted every part of me
Every part of me.
Gray skies come and go.
Will I ever know
The sun on my skin,
will a new day begin.
Will I reach the peak of the mountain
or sink in the valley low.
Don’t want to be haunted by your ghost.
I want to see the future now.
Don’t want to be blinded
by circumstances we could have avoided.
The past behind me.
The thought of you is crippling.
Your love has haunted every part of me .
Every part of me
It’s a mystery to me
what life takes and what it leaves.
Why can’t everything be simple.
You don't know what to choose,
you might win or you might lose.
I chose to set you free
Now you’re haunting me.
I want to see the future now.
Don’t want to be blinded
by circumstances we could have avoided.
I want to reach the peaks of the mountain
And leave the valley low.
Don’t want to be haunted,
Leave me alone.
Leave me, leave me, leave me alone.
Your love, your love, your love, your love.
Your love is haunting me.
Haunting me.
