I'm sitting at an empty theatre
and I can hear your favorite song
I'm sitting here trying to mutter
but my lyrics just dont belong

there's a lady wearing your dress
and I can't see her face
I want to walk up to her and confess
all this hurt taking up my space

she's making me blink profusely
I can't see the movie anymore
my tears do something admonitory
like sting my eyes to the core

I can't even hear them
because you're laughing so hard
it becomes more cumbersome
and I wonder if I'm mad

where the hell did you come from ?
or is it this lady in your dress ?
she keeps acting like my mum
and I her pretty princess

but she isn't
and your dead
why are you so adamant ,
in my head ?

maybe it's my fault
because I won't let you go
I have wounds with your salt
that should have gone long ago

even now so ,
I'm sitting in an empty theatre
seeing a movie you don't know
I'm humming a song I can't quite remember
while watching the ghost of you go .
