Verse 1:
In the shadows where I linger
Your heartbeat echoes like a whisper
It calms the storm that rages within
Why do you chase what others fear?
My shadows are deep and full of sins
Yet you step closer, wearing a grin
Why must it be you who dares
To love a soul so ensnared?
Chorus:
I’m a ghost, not your hero (not your hero)
You need light, not my shadows (not my shadows)
You’re pure and I’m a fracture (I’m a fracture)
Haunted by my murderous passion (murderous passion)
Verse 2:
Your tears fall for a heart so jaded
Why embrace what’s fated to fade?
I’m a book of ends, not beginnings
Yet you read on, hoping to find meanings
You offer dreams, I offer you scars
Why do you stay when you should be far?
Was it fate that made you choose
To love someone with nothing to lose?
Chorus:
I’m a ghost, not your hero (not your hero)
You need light, not my shadows (not my shadows)
You’re pure and I’m a fracture (I’m a fracture)
Haunted by my murderous passion (murderous passion)
Bridge:
Why did it have to be you?
In the dance of the doomed and the cursed
You’re the light, I’m the verse
Of a song that ends in the hearse
Chorus:
I’m a ghost, not your hero (not your hero)
You need light, not my shadows (not my shadows)
You’re pure and I’m a fracture (I’m a fracture)
Haunted by my murderous passion (murderous passion)
Outro:
In your eyes, I see the sea
A depth unknown that could set me free
But I’m bound by chains, by my own hand
With a heart that loves but can’t withstand
