Lyrics
I buried my hope in the same place I prayed Thought love could raise the dead, but some ghosts like to stay
You said peace, I said truth We never met in the middle, we just bruised Every word felt sharp when you spoke Every touch was a test, every promise broke We stitched our hearts with thought of wild dreams Caught in passion, but it tore at the seams Now I walk through the house like a grave With memories I still can't save
You said forever out of fear Now forever is not even here You can't build heaven out of pain You can't feel love if it feels the same I'm done trying to make you stay We're just ghosts in yesterday I don't need faith, I don't need flames Just to learn how to walk away You can't build heaven out of pain We're just ghosts in yesterday
I'm not numb, I just learned to cope Held my breath until I choked You kept saying we'd find peace But peace was just another leash
Every night, same line, same war We were fighting to feel before I lost myself in fixing you The biggest lie I thought was true We said forever out of fear Now forever is not even here
You can't build heaven out of pain You can't feel love if it feels the same I'm done trying to make you stay We're just ghosts in yesterday I don't need faith, I don't need flames Just to learn how to walk away You can't build heaven out of pain We're just ghosts in yesterday
I don't hate you, I hate the silence We killed love in slow defiance You can't heal once you keep repeating You can't win if you fear believing
You can't build heaven out of pain You can't feel love if it feels the same I'm done trying to make you stay We're just ghosts in yesterday
I don't need faith, I don't need flames Just the strength to fade away You can't build heaven out of pain We're just ghosts in yesterday
You said forever, I'll say goodbye Only one of us learned how to die
Thanks for watching
