Lyrics
Are you still here
Or just a memory staring back at me?
The mirror knows what I conceal
It shows what time refused to heal
(I see)
I see myself but I don't look the same
A hollow face still calling your name
The light still falls where you once stood
I'd trade the calm for what felt good
The nights stretch long like cigarette smoke
The warmth you left turns cold, turns broke
Turns broke
Light flickers soft against my skin
Half of me still waits where you've been
There's a ghost in the mirror
He wears my face but he's not here
Every breath feels hollow and cold
Love is gone but it still takes hold
There's a ghost in the mirror
He wears my face but he's not here
Every breath feels hollow and cold
Love is gone but it still takes hold
Your coffee cup still stains the place
The morning sun still paints your face
The chair holds the warmth you brought
As if my heart recalled what love once told
The quiet lands, where dreams pass through
As if your hands were mine to lose
If forgetting means I lose my sight
Why does your shape still glow in my mind
There's a ghost in the mirror
He moves when I turn away
Every scar grows clearer
Love never learned to fade
There's a ghost in the mirror
He moves when I turn away
Every scar grows clearer
Love never learned to fade
Maybe I'm just haunting myself
Every lie became a prayer I tell
If I break this glass tonight
Would I see you, or just my own fright?
There's a ghost in the mirror
He smiles but he's not alive
Every truth I tried to bury
Still breathes behind my eyes
There's a ghost in the mirror
He smiles but he's not alive
Every truth I tried to bury
Still breathes behind my eyes
The mirror breaks, yet I remain
A softer shape, without the pain
