Starting with the Ghost of Me

Verse 1 I’m standing on the edge of this old town, Streetlights flicker like they know my name. Windows hide the faces, shadows all around, But I can’t shake the feeling, I’m the one to blame. Pre-Chorus Every chance I let slip through my hands, Whispers in the dark, “You could’ve taken a stand.” But here I am, drowning in regret, Staring at the sky, wondering if I’ll forget. Chorus Oh, if you want revenge, start with the ghost of me, The dreams I buried deep, the ones I couldn’t see. I’m rising from the ashes, breaking all the chains, Gonna turn this hurt into fire, dance in the rain. Verse 2 I remember laughter, echoes in the hall, Long nights with the promise, I’d never lose it all. Now the clock is ticking, can’t rewind the song, But I’ll take this pain and learn to sing along. Pre-Chorus Every whisper of doubt that’s haunted my days, I’ll spin them into strength, cut through the haze. I see the cracks in all I used to know, But those faded dreams might just help me grow. Chorus Oh, if you want revenge, start with the ghost of me, The dreams I buried deep, the ones I couldn’t see. I’m rising from the ashes, breaking all the chains, Gonna turn this hurt into fire, dance in the rain. Bridge So here’s to the moments that slipped through my fingers, To the sparks that faded, and love that lingers. I’ll paint them in colors, bold and bright, Take the bitter lessons, turn them into light. Chorus Oh, if you want revenge, start with the ghost of me, The dreams I buried deep, the ones I couldn’t see. I’m rising from the ashes, breaking all the chains, Gonna turn this hurt into fire, dance in the rain. Outro Yeah, if you want revenge, let it start right here, With every heartbeat louder, I’ll embrace my fear. From the ghost of me, a new story will rise, With the strength of my past, I’ll light up the skies.
