I don't understand


 


 

Why would you hurt me like this?

All I wanted was your love and affection

I thought you were pure bliss

It wasn't love it was just a projection

 

You left love bites on my skin

It turns out they were just bruises

Love is just  a deadly sin

 

I let you hurt  me

I let you break me

I let you disable me

And now there's a Ghost of me

 

But for some reason, I can't understand, how one can be so evil without even noticing?

 

My Ghost loved you

But now I'm reborn

There's something in the air a brew

All that I have  left is just to mourn

 

Mourn my Ghost on the west coast
