Ghostwriter

[Intro]
[Verse]
Crumpled pages on the floor
I can't take it anymore
Empty mugs and bitter stains
Tracing patterns in my veins
You were sitting by my side
Now you’ve got nowhere to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
I see your face on the screen
The fakest smile I've ever seen
You thank the God you don’t believe
While you hide what's up your sleeve
[Chorus]
That was my blood on the page
Now you’re standing on that stage
You stole the rhythm and the rhyme
You’re just a ghost in borrowed time
Give it back
Watch it crack
[Post-Chorus]
Borrowed time
Borrowed rhyme
You are nothing
[Verse]
Midnight oil burned for weeks
Tears are drying on my cheeks
Every metaphor you sold
Turned my silver into gold
You claim the vision as your own
On a hollow, plastic throne
[Pre-Chorus]
I see your face on the screen
The fakest smile I've ever seen
You thank the God you don’t believe
While you hide what's up your sleeve
[Chorus]
That was my blood on the page
Now you’re standing on that stage
You stole the rhythm and the rhyme
You’re just a ghost in borrowed time
Give it back
Watch it crack
[Hook]
It’s not yours
Close the doors
It’s not yours
Wage your wars
[Bridge]
The ink is dry and cold
The story has been told
I’m cutting every single thread
Inside my aching head
You can keep the hollow prize
I see the darkness in your eyes
[Breakdown]
Fuzzed out
Blacked out
Ripped out
Loud shout
[Chorus]
That was my blood on the page
Now you’re standing on that stage
You stole the rhythm and the rhyme
You’re just a ghost in borrowed time
Give it back
Watch it crack
[Post-Chorus]
You’re nothing now
Just a shadow in the crowd
I’m done with the game
Forget my name
[Outro]
