Watched you leave with no reason Didn't say how you feel, just said what you want Is this real? But there's no sense There's no hope to be found with you in my life In my life I'd rather live with ghosts now And I'd rather live with ghosts And now, despite feeling all the ways The ways that we'd both forget... ...who we are Who we were is all we'll ever know We're all taught by the phone (Taught by the phone) To feel nothing, empty, cold While our voices expire in an empty home (You swear) You swear you did, but you didn't fight Left a part of me with you just to die You can't comprehend that the screens a lie (The screens a lie) I'd rather live with ghosts now And I'd rather live with ghosts And now, despite feeling all the ways The ways that we'd both forget... ...who we are Who we were is all we'll ever know This fabrication that we are building Is fascinating, though This fabrication that we believe in Has superseded our soul I'd rather live with ghosts now And I'd rather live with ghosts And now, despite feeling all the ways The past made us forget... ...who we are Who we were is all we'll ever know
