You sent a text

It's like the wind changed your mind

We were best friends

Yeah, we were building our lives

With every kiss and every letter

Every promise of forever

Oh, but you hit send

And disappeared in front of my eyes

And now you're just a ghost

(When I look back never would have known that)

You could be so cold

(Like a stranger vanish like a vapor)

There's just an echo where your heart used to be

Now I see it clearly

And there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep

My vision's twenty-twenty

I see through you now

Something has died

Now that I have made up my mind

I'll be alright

It doesn't harm me at night

'Cause every gift and every letter

Every promise of forever

Now, it's out of sight

Like you were never alive

And now you're just a ghost

(When I look back never would have known that)

You could be so cold

(Like a stranger vanish like a vapor)

There's just an echo where your heart used to be

Now I see it clearly

And there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep

My vision's twenty-twenty

I see through you

Now, now, now, now

Now, now, now, now, now

So rest in peace

I'll see you on the other side

And now you're just a ghost

(When I look back never would have known that)

You could be so cold

(Like a stranger vanish like a vapor)

There's just an echo where your heart used to be

Now I see it clearly

Oh, and there's just a pillow where your head used to sleep

My vision's twenty-twenty

I see through you

Now, now, now, now, now

Oh, now, now, now, now, now

I see through you now

Now, now, now, now, now

Now, now, now, now, now

I see through you now
