Story behind the song
Are you missing them, or missing who they pretended to be.
Lyrics
Verse 1
You wore a mask that fit me so well,
A perfect illusion, a story to tell.
Your words were a spark that lit up my heart,
But they were a script, just a players part.
Chorus
I dont miss you, I miss all the lies you said to my face,
The dreams we supposedly shared, it was your only saving grace.
Im chasing a ghost that was never true,
Im missing the pretender I thought was you.
Verse 2
Your charm was a mirror, reflecting my hopes,
But your perfect act slipped, unraveling ropes.
The future you sold couldnt hold its disguise,
It crumbled to dust beneath fading skies.
Chorus
I dont miss you, I miss all the lies you said to my face,
The dreams we supposedly shared, it was your only saving grace.
Im chasing a ghost that was never true,
Im missing the pretender I thought was you.
Bridge
You wove a dream that I held too tight,
A fleeting mirage that vanished by night.
Now Im grieving the lie that you made me believe,
The shadow you cast is the loss that I grieve.
Chorus
I dont miss you, I miss all the lies you said to my face,
The dreams we supposedly shared, it was your only saving grace.
Im chasing a ghost that was never true,
Im missing the pretender I thought was you.
Outro
Ill sing to the ashes of who never was,
A dream that you spun for no real cause.
I dont miss you, but my heart still aches,
For the pretender who was always fake.
