Thewz - Phantom lyrics

We used to be those kids on the swingset Tryna put words to a feeling that didn't sting yet I would pick you flowers from the garden While you dipped your hands in wet cement just to watch it harden In cla**, I'd never have to ask if you were there ‘cause I could always feel your feet kicking the back of my chair In 6th grade, I carved our names into that oak tree And vowed, no matter what, I would always hold you closely Now we're 19, married, community college graduated I wake up to you every morning, no longer infatuated I always had dreams of being self made But had to let them go, ‘cause I knocked you up in 12th grade And because of your religion I feel I got robbed Now all you do is pop pills while I work dead end jobs So I look you in the eyes and ask if this is what you want All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt And it k**s me All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt And it k**s me All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt Sometimes it seems like it's always been this way Like I have only dreamed of a smile on our faces We've got nothing but each other in this world

So baby here's your anthem We're just two nameless phantoms I remember how we laughed on our first date Your dad got mad ‘cause I brought you back home late We were two teens, in love with the world It was simple, I was your boy and you were my girl When you're kids, love is exactly like the movies are But we're all fated to grow and endure a couple scars We were all of those cliches and more Without a damn clue of what the future held in store And now it's f**ed up, I'm aggravated before you even speak We used to talk about forever, I don't know if we'll last the week It's pitiful, when I think of all the sh** I did for you Don't know any other girls, I've been in love with you since middle school So leaving's not an option, and there's nobody watchin' We've only had each other, yeah we're practically forgotten So I look you in the eyes and ask if this is what you want All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt And it k**s me All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt And it k**s me All we are is ghosts with no place to haunt
