Letra
[Intro]
[washed-out guitar figure circles
Simple
Sad motif repeating
Low pad breathing under
Distant footsteps in the reverb]
[Verse 1]
Ashtray on the windowsill
Lipstick on the coffee rim
You said you’d call “when you’re okay”
The dial tone just sinks in
Photos curling on the wall
Faces fading
Names erased
I talk to shadows in the hall
They answer back in your voice
Faint
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Spare
[Verse 2]
Your jacket on the bedroom door
Still smells like the night we broke
I wear it like a borrowed skin
Too heavy for this throat
Streetlight bleeding through the blinds
Cuts my eyes in crooked lines
I trace them like the paths you took
And lose you every time
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Spare
[Bridge]
Did you ever feel the knife
Twist when you said goodbye (goodbye)
Or did you walk away light
Leaving all your weight in mine
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Bare
[washed-out guitar figure circles
Simple
Sad motif repeating
Low pad breathing under
Distant footsteps in the reverb]
[Verse 1]
Ashtray on the windowsill
Lipstick on the coffee rim
You said you’d call “when you’re okay”
The dial tone just sinks in
Photos curling on the wall
Faces fading
Names erased
I talk to shadows in the hall
They answer back in your voice
Faint
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Spare
[Verse 2]
Your jacket on the bedroom door
Still smells like the night we broke
I wear it like a borrowed skin
Too heavy for this throat
Streetlight bleeding through the blinds
Cuts my eyes in crooked lines
I trace them like the paths you took
And lose you every time
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Spare
[Bridge]
Did you ever feel the knife
Twist when you said goodbye (goodbye)
Or did you walk away light
Leaving all your weight in mine
[Chorus]
I see your ghost in every corner
Every empty chair
You left your storms inside my ribcage
Thunder in the air
I keep calling out your old name
But you’re never there
All I’ve got are
Shadows on the stairwell
Staring back
Bare

Intro built on atmospheric electric guitar drenched in reverb and delay over a soft ambient pad, bass creeping in low. Verses stay sparse with rim-click drums and distant, chorused guitar stabs; choruses hit harder with punchy kick, snare, and overdriven rhythm guitars. Bridge leans into a washed-out, chorus-heavy lead line and whispered backing vocals before a final, explosive hook., post-punk, ambient, alternative rock, simple, electric, emotional, soft
