Ghostwritten Futures

Verse 1: Clutching Polaroids from the past, Caught in a loop where the good things didn't last. Box of old letters, I can't seem to throw away, Echoes of you in the words we used to say. Pre-Chorus: Every shadow's filled with might-have-beens, Traces of you in between my skin. Chorus: Right here I stand, on tomorrow's edge, Yet anchored in a sorrowful yesterday. I can't let go of the shadows, still trying to find my way, Stuck in the ghost of you, letting now slip away. Verse 2: Mirrors reflecting the smiles of a time long gone, Like a needle stuck on my favorite song. I keep looking back, scared to face the day, Missing the chapters where I get to say I’m okay. Bridge: Maybe there’s beauty in the unturned stones, In the unwritten songs, in the unknowns. Clinging to the past, my comfort dress worn thin, Comfort in the familiar, in the mess. Chorus: Right here I stand, on tomorrow's edge, Yet anchored in a sorrowful yesterday. I can't let go of the shadows, still trying to find my way, Stuck in the ghost of you, letting now slip away. Outro: It’s time to dance under a new sky, To pen the verses that say I didn’t just survive. Will I embrace the dawn, let the old fears depart? When Can I step into the light I can't let go of the shadows, still trying to find my way, Stuck in the ghost of you, letting now slip away. Outro: It’s time to dance under a new sky, To pen the verses that say I didn’t just survive. Will I embrace the dawn, let the old fears depart? Can I step out into the light with a broken heart?
