Lyrics:
I'm stagnant as the only one left.
Memories of conversations that I never had.
I gave you my leash, willingly.

In danger of strangers that know my name.

Hollow out a chest with life at its best.
Reach down my throat and take it.
You know I don't need it.
Control me with reminiscing.

A simp for self-inflicted wounds.
I entertain a dead version of you.
When I open my eyes,
I feel my own lies,
And then act surprised.

I can hear your voice, if I close my eyes.
You're standing right there.

I can see it all.
The moment I recall.
It's like you never left, then I can feign happiness.
Your mouth never moves, but I still hear you.
Why do I choose to live like this?
The mind tricks us all again.
It tricks us all again.
(Mingling with specters because I won't go.)
Memories aren't real.
Memories aren't real.
Thinking about it won't bring them back.

Memories aren't real.
Memories aren't real.
Memories aren't real.
