Lyrics

Delusion

[Verse 1]

I can't go on knowing that you're there alone, it's tearing at my soul

You're always watching and always waiting for my next dive into misery

Falling into this desperate deception you've left me to rot in

I can't be left alone, this might be your prison, but this is my home

[Chorus]

I am a ghost that you can't lock away

So make the most out of all my mistakes

You turn your back, I'll do away with all you've ever known

I am a ghost, I am a ghost

[Post-Chorus]

What do you want from me?

[Verse 2]

I won't be part of your plan to derail me

Why can't you fucking see? How selfish can you be?

Watching and judging everything that I do

I won't play victim just cause you

[Interlude]

Take everything to heart

Take everything to heart

Take each word I say and tear it apart

[Pre-Chorus]

Take everything to heart, take each word I say and tear it apart

Analyze each breath I take, watch every move I make

Take everything to heart, take each word I say and tear it apart

Analyze each breath I take, watch every move I make

[Chorus]

I am a ghost that you can't lock away

So make the most out of all my mistakes

You turn your back, I'll do away with all you've ever known

I am a ghost, I am a ghost

Until I fade and cease to breathe

I'll always feel your eyes watching me

You're all I hear, I'm all you see

The only name you'll ever speak

[Post-Chorus]

The only name you'll ever speak

[Bridge]

A constant war

You'd rather see me collapse than help me carry all the weight you love to force on my back

You watch me fall again, but I refuse to sit and watch that part of me just die

I deserve my fucking life

[Verse 3]

You're running out of steam, but you're part of me

If you'd just let yourself see, there's nothing we can't be

But there's just no way to trust you, there's no way to save you

I won't play the victim just cause you

[Pre-Chorus]

Take everything to heart, take each word I say and tear it apart

Analyze each breath I take, watch every move I make

Take everything to heart, take each word I say and tear it apart

Analyze each breath I take, watch every move I make

[Chorus]

I am a ghost that you can't lock away

So make the most out of all my mistakes

You turn your back, I'll do away with all you've ever known

I am a ghost, I am a ghost

Until I fade and cease to breathe

I'll always feel your eyes watching me

You're all I hear, I'm all you see

The only name you'll ever speak
