Lyrics
(verse 1)
She waits alone on the curb.
Rain soaks through her shoes.
Cold embrace, a worried face.
As she puts together the clues.
I'm running late again.
Yet another broken promise.
Slow replies and texts unread.
From this latest Adonis.
(Chorus)
Why is this the normal?
Disconnect and then discard.
These posers are disposable.
Don't let them leave you scarred.
When your tinder makes no fires.
And your matches have no spark.
Hey Cupid, are you OK?
I'm giving up the ghosts inside the dark.
(verse 2)
It seems to be a numbers game.
More math that ends in my bed.
Sick of swiping through the lies
To find my fate's red thread.
Flowers, I can buy myself.
Your money; I don't need.
Your ego can inflate itself.
This heart's too broken to bleed.
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
Why is this the normal?
Disconnect and then discard.
These posers are disposable.
Don't let them leave you scarred.
When your tinder makes no fires.
And your matches have no spark.
Hey Cupid, are you OK?
I'm giving up the ghosts in the dark.
(Instrumental Solo)
(verse 3)
Forget the curated profiles and the over-filtered pics
Complain just like a martyr. Climb up on your crucifix.
Ask me what I'm into. Take me for a drive.
Treat me like I'm worth it. Make me feel alive!
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Forget the curated profiles
and the over-filtered pics
Complain just like a martyr.
Climb up on that crucifix.
Nobody's perfect and no i don't expect you to be.
All I really want from you is simple honesty.
(Chorus)
Why is this the normal?
Disconnect and then discard.
These posers are disposable.
Don't let them leave you scarred.
When your tinder makes no fires.
And your matches have no spark.
Hey Cupid, are you OK?
I'm giving up the ghosts inside the dark.
(solo)
(lead synthpad instrumental solo)
(Chorus)
Why is this the normal?
Disconnect and then discard.
These posers are disposable.
Don't let them leave you scarred.
When your tinder makes no fires.
And your matches have no spark.
Hey Cupid, are you OK?
I'm giving up the ghosts inside the dark.
Giving up the ghosts (x4)
(Outro)
(Chorus)
(Outro)
Giving up the ghosts (x4)
