Lyrics

Every time I wrap up, ghosts come back
from you laughing, calling after me
I hadn’t made it out the car park yet
that laugh hit deeply
I said I was fine, I always do
then drove away with ghosts of you

I tie it tight and count to three
tell myself you didn’t need me

I wrap my hands, I take the hit
trying to sweat it out of me
Every round knows what I did
I’m sparring ghosts of what could be

still sparring ghosts of what could be

The bag keeps time with my heartbeat
lungs on fire, I won’t slow down
I see you in the mirror sometimes
then I look away
Your laugh still rides the long way home
I hate myself for wanting that
I don’t tell anyone your name
I take it in, I let it wreck

You offered to help, I said I was good
I don’t know why I always do
You leaned in close, I stepped aside
I wanted you anyway

I tie it tight and don’t look back
I know exactly where you left me

I wrap my hands, I take the hit
trying to sweat it out of me
Every round knows what I did
I’m sparring ghosts of what could be

I’m sparring ghosts that won’t leave me

I wanted you anyway
I still do
