Lyric

I’m still chasing the ghost, yeah, the "Real"

Even when the shadows are snapping at my heel

Oh—ever since you pierced right through my soul

This shattered heart has lost all control

It’s a loneliness I can’t explain

A jagged piece of the pouring rain

Ah—there were vultures, idiots in the street

Tearing at your spirit, making life incomplete

And I stood there, watching you bleed

I couldn't heal the wounds, I couldn't give what you need

Baby, I failed you then

Shattered heart, pieces on the floor

Loneliness is banging at my door

Oh baby, you were the only one who knew

The only one who tried to see me through

Better than anyone, more than anyone else

(Oh—)

Ah—if I could’ve stayed closer, stayed by your side

There were so many things I could've turned with the tide

But now we’re here, in this broken mess

Confessing the pain, under the stress

Still chasing the Real, even if I’m the prey

Hunted by the choices of a darker day

Oh—ever since the moment we first met

It’s been a beautiful, broken alphabet

Stay with me... stay in the dark

This loneliness is our only spark!

Oh baby

Oh baby

Ah———

Until I can reach you, until I can stay

The "Real" is a debt I’m gonna pay

Always together, from the start to the end

Always together, my lover, my friend

(Oh—)

Oh baby

Ah—————
