Nicole Dollanganger - Phantom Pains lyrics

You're the phantom pains
The ache that won't go away
Never had you, so how did I lose you?
I already felt you before I even knew you

I know it's just the remnants
I'm only feeling handprints
Of your past aggressions
I'm just playing with your shadow

You're the phantom limbs
A ghost hanging off of my skin
I could reach out and touch you, I swear
But you're not really there

You're the legs that hurt
When they aren't there at all
You're the broken bones
And the bleeding nose
Just the marks of a ghost

And I know it's just the remnants
I'm only feeling handprints
Of your past aggressions
I'm just playing with your shadow

I know you're just my phantom pains
You're the ache that won't go away
And we'll never be close enough to know
What a waste
