Ghost

What if you woke up to an empty bed And a note that said "I'm never coming home, I can't live with the person I've become"? Would you even notice I was gone? Or would would you carry on? Staring blankly into spaces that I used to occupy? I always fucking hated that distance in your eyes I'm a ghost I'm a shadow on the wall of a house you don't go in anymore And though transparency is nothing new to me I guess I never thought you'd be the one to leave So, what's there to say? I know that "sorry" is what's expected But what will that change? I'm still sleepless in the bed that I have made The grave, the product of my selfish ways And I know that this would mean everything to someone, but nothing to you But I never meant to be the boy that cried wolf, there was just no other way to get through to you I mean, how was I expected to tell you the truth? You couldn't even look me in the face most days And it's taken me this long to work out why But I I spent years being ashamed I spent years being afraid Of something that wasn't there in the first place Did you ever love me? What if you woke up And you'd forgotten everything that I have said? Could we be happy again? If I can learn to live with myself Could you learn to love me like you said you did? I know I hate the man I am But I am who you made me If I can learn to live with myself Could you learn to love me like you said you did? I know I hate the man I am But I am who you made me
