chasing ghosts

chasing ghosts

written by Matty Shreds

Good things are happening, yet I still feel hollow
A part of me died & it’s a hard pill to swallow
Your face appears in every dream
Your voice is heard in every scream

What does it all mean?

For every truth, you buried four lies
Then you’d blame me for your demise

But why?

Was it fun to fuck with my mind?
Did you enjoy a familiar kind?
I despise you for truths too painful to face
Yet here I stand, bound to a love I can’t erase

Was it you or was it me?
Eye to eye; we’ll never see
We share the same darkness—you feel it too
I’ll always know you, it’s like you’re see-through

Blame’s easily pushed when guilt prevails
Your problem is you ignore the details
There’s nothing peaceful in the world of a liar
Constant despair & a life filled with ire

Why do I still crave you while feeling so much hate?
Part of me knows I deserve this fate
I’m not the worst, but I swear that I try
A backwards theory where logic goes to die

Can you see me?

Did you enjoy this?
