Lyrics
Thought that I'd leave you in the past yeah
Reflecting on the intention to leave someone behind in the past.
Took your fire and your flames to burn it right through
Using the intensity of emotions (fire and flames) to try and erase the connection.
But it keeps on coming back in
Despite efforts, the connection or memories persistently resurface.
And I'm still hating myself for loving you
Regretting still loving the person despite attempts to move on.
Now I wish that we never started talking
Expressing a wish to have never initiated communication or involvement.
Too many problems too far from solving
Acknowledging numerous unresolved issues hindering progress.
Sleeping alone but I still feel haunted
Feeling haunted or emotionally affected despite being physically alone.
Damn you come back like a ghost
The person's return is likened to a persistent haunting presence.
See you everywhere I go
Sensing the person's presence everywhere.
Can you just leave me lonely
Requesting solitude, wanting to be left alone.
Like when you would hold me
Longing for the past affection and comfort the person provided.
Leave me in the cold
Desiring emotional distance and detachment.
Damn you come back like a ghost
The return of emotions is compared to the reappearance of a ghost.
Feel you even when I don't
Feeling the person's presence even without direct interaction.
See your face in all in all these strangers
Seeing reminders of the person in strangers' faces.
Hear you in the places
Hearing reminders of the person in familiar places.
That we used to go
Associating certain places with shared memories.
Memories still feeling recent
Recent memories feeling vivid and fresh despite time passing.
Like when we'd say this is worth fighting for
Recalling moments that felt worth fighting for in the relationship.
But I'm tired of seeing them
Expressing exhaustion from repeatedly encountering these memories.
And feeling like you're still around
Feeling as though the person's presence lingers despite trying to move on.
Now I wish that we never started talking
Reiterating the desire to have never initiated contact or involvement.
Too many problems too far from solving
Reiterating unresolved issues hindering progress in the relationship.
Sleeping alone but I still feel haunted
Feeling haunted despite sleeping alone.
Damn you come back like a ghost
Continuing to feel the person's presence as if they were a ghost.
See you everywhere I go
Seeing reminders of the person everywhere.
Can you just leave me lonely
Desiring solitude and isolation from the person's presence.
Like when you would hold me
Yearning for the past affection and closeness.
Leave me in the cold
Wanting emotional distance and detachment.
Damn you come back like a ghost
Comparing the return of emotions to the reappearance of a ghost.
Feel you even when I don't
Feeling the person's presence even without direct interaction.
See your face in all in all these strangers
Seeing reminders of the person in strangers' faces.
Hear you in the places
Hearing reminders of the person in familiar places.
That we used to go
Associating certain places with shared memories.
Damn you come back like a
Reiterating the haunting return of emotions akin to a ghost.
Ghost, ghost, ghost
Repetition emphasizing the persistent return of the person's presence.
Damn you come back like a ghost
-See you everywhere I go
