i think i saw a ghost in this old apartment
i think i saw a memory of you
i broke all my mirrors
thinking about the things that you do

i think i feel your arms around me
i think i love how small you make me feel
i think i burned a bridge when i fell into your icy eyes
i think i'm thinking too hard about you

i felt your breath on my neck last night

i felt a ghost in the hallway
it makes me think of this shipwreck love

you made me feel like i had nothing left
you lied to me when you said you loved me

you can fight through it all

you're the figure in my bed
you're the monster that haunts my mind
when i'm wide awake

you're the angel i fell in love with
you're the demon i've grown to despise
you're forever a ghost of who we used to be
back in the summer of like

do you remember saying 'i love you' and meaning it
good because neither can i

I wrote this at 1 AM. I'm still suffering from post-Hayden-getting-kicked-off-ness. Plus, I'm still not over Mat. I never will be.
