Mouthpieces - (A) Part of Me

Will you still believe me
Like an old ghost story
When you say you're leaving
Don't you come back grieving

You're taking one two three four steps back
I try to hold back don't forget that
You try to be real, but it's all just for show
All the same stories I already know
The past isn't really haunting
What scares me is not knowing
Like a knife in my chest
You let out what was left
I'm just a monster in your old stories

You never once believed me
Like an old ghost story
When you say you're leaving
Don't you come back grieving
You start clipping at the wings you like it
Don't try you know there's no denying
So take a part of me
If it makes you happy

I never wanted any of this
Leaving like this
I didn't want just someone anyone to miss
This is house is not cursed
You wish for the worst
Slowly we fade
With the youth that you thirst

I feel you pull pull pulling
You keep on take take taking

Choked up filled with sorrow
Coughed up what you don't know
Play motion pictures in your head or watch the credits roll instead, yeah?

You never once believed me
Like an old ghost story
When you say you're leaving
Don't you come back grieving
You start clipping at the wings you like it
Don't try you know there's no denying
So take a part of me
If it makes you happy

Hear me out over the pain you shout
I wanna watch you lowered in the ground
You won't make a sound
Won't hear you calling crawling

Out over the pain you shout
I wanna watch you lowered in the ground
You won't make a sound
Won't hear you calling

You never once believed me
Like an old ghost story
When my heart stops beating
Don't you come back

You never once believed me
Like an old ghost story
When you say you're leaving
Don't you come back grieving

You take a part of me

Don't you come don't you come back grieving

You take a part of me

Don't you come don't you come back grieving

Part of me

Don't you come don't you come back grieving

You take a part of me

If it makes you happy
