For a Ghost

Verse 1

Lights cut through the haze of the night

I still dial your number sometimes

The bass in the walls feels like a heartbeat

But yours is gone from the line

Pre-Chorus

And I wait for the chorus to break

For your voice in the static to wake

Chorus

Where did you go when the curtain fell down

Did the neon keep you warm somehow

I'm still dancing to the song we found

Where did you go when the lights went out

Hook

Gone gone gone

Holding onto the sound

Verse 2

The stage smells of rain and old smoke

You'd laugh at the jokes I can't shake

I trace every chord that you used to own

A ghost in the words that we make

Pre-Chorus

And I wait for the chorus to break

For your shape in the fog to take place

Chorus

Where did you go when the curtain fell down

Did the neon keep you warm somehow

I'm still dancing to the song we found

Where did you go when the lights went out

Bridge

Every mirror shows a friend I miss

Every tuning hums your name through this

I keep the amps on low just in case

You walk in and take your place

Chorus

Where did you go when the curtain fell down

Did the neon keep you warm somehow

I'm still dancing to the song we found

Where did you go when the lights went out
