[Verse 1]

Saw you in my dream again

Thought the years would wash you out

Told myself I grew past it

But the ghost still drags me down

[Pre-Chorus]

I don’t wanna make you flinch

Don’t wanna be that weight you hate

But every time your face comes back

It’s like my chest just radiates

[Chorus]

I thought I healed, but I still burn

Hoping you don’t feel concerned

I’m tryna play it like I’ve grown

But the truth is hate won’t leave me alone

You’re in my head, you’re in my sleep

A secret I can’t let you keep

I see you smile, but all I taste

Is bitterness I can’t erasе

[Verse 2]

Told myself forgiveness fits

But thе seams keep splitting wide

I replay the way you looked

When my presence made you hide

[Pre-Chorus]

I don’t wanna touch that scar

I don’t wanna stain your name

But silence cuts a deeper line

Than any word I could explain

[Chorus]

I thought I healed, but I still burn

Hoping you don’t feel concerned

I’m tryna play it like I’ve grown

But the truth is hate won’t leave me alone

You’re in my head, you’re in my sleep

A secret I can’t let you keep

I see you smile, but all I taste

Is bitterness I can’t erase

[Bridge]

And I hate that you still matter

Every dream just pulls me under

I wake up with your shadow

Heavy breathing, distant thunder

[Outro]

Yeah, I hope you’re free of me

Even if I’ll never be

And if my name still makes you cold

Just know I never let it go
