lyrics

All your ghosts haunt me… All your ghosts haunt me!

Knew you’d come with scars, we’ve both suffered pain…
you’ve got open wounds, spewing blood you can’t contain

Break up came up premature, staying friends is “so mature”
Reality is you can’t take pain that comes with a clean break
The time it took my heart to crack, realize you’d always hold back,
Carry a bag of dead weight ‘cause you can’t clean your slate

Didn’t see the flag bright red now it’s way too late to separate
my aching heart form my hard pounding head, from my pounding head!

Your heart ends the dotted line, ex marks the spot
She’s the one that got away, I’m the one you got
See it in your eyes I’m your consolation prize,
consolation prize

Stashed the body in your basement, carried on with a replacement
Fill the round hole in your heart, square peg doesn’t fit the part
Death by far away stares into a life with what’s downstairs!

Didn’t see the flag bright red now it’s way too late to separate
my aching heart form my hard pounding head, from my pounding head!

Your heart ends the dotted line, ex marks the spot
She’s the one that got away, I’m the one you got
See it in your eyes I’m your consolation prize,
consolation prize
