Ryan Leahan's album "spark!" [includes 3 bonus demos]

a friend of satan is a friend of me

Haunted

[Verse 1: Atlas in Motion]
Floating in the air so quiet
Our playlist covering the silence
I just wanna take my phone & call you
But you’ve got work tomorrow morning

[Chorus: Atlas in Motion]
So I won’t keep you
You aren’t mine to keep
I won’t reach you
You’d away from me and disappear
Under a sheet you'd go
Ghost!

[Verse 2: han.irl <3]
I always think of you in silence
Wanna call you but I always fight it
Write another song
Pretend I’m moving on
It’s been a year & I still
See your silhouette in my headlights
I drove away like you didn’t mean a damn thing
But you were my everything

[Chorus: han.irl <3 & Atlas in Motion]
But I won’t keep you
You aren’t mine to keep
I won’t reach you
You’d away from me and disappear
Under a sheet you'd go
Ghost!

lyrics:

[Intro]
Hello, please leave a message after the tone

[Verse 1]
It’s almost a past life, outlined in gold
Goodbye for the last time, swallow me whole
Wide-eyed, bawling, bursting at the seams
Naive, raised by confidantes and a dream
Dressed all in white with a crown of roses
Thorns hold your eyes, too ingrained to close them
World’s bigger than us now, dear
Arms wrapped around me
The hills swallow the trust out here
Closed off surroundings
Hazel tears line your eyes
Fixed on the skyline

[Chorus]
Flying down the road
Chasing dreams we left alone
Or are we still running
Scared of things we’ve always known
There’s something about it
You said you’d call but I doubt it
Should’ve known how it sounded
When you left me all alone

[Verse 2]
Ever since I left that town
I see your face in the mirror
If every single second counts
Then why am I here?
Does it all disappear?
Am I wasting my life?
Am I all out of time?
Yeah, pick it apart
If you want it perfect take a look at my art
Few days off and I’m backed up
No I don’t take breaks, I don’t act up
No, but I need the rest
I won’t play a fool
Cause I see the best
In you more than you do
“Oh my fucking GOD”

[Chorus]
Flying down the road
Chasing dreams we left alone
Or are we still running
Scared of things we’ve always known?
There’s something about it
You said you’d call but I doubt it
I should’ve known how it sounded
When you left me all alone
Crying through your phone
Telling me you won't let go
If this is all that you wanted
Why am I still on my own?
Know you love to waste time
Nothing you can say to save mine
Cause now when I call
All I hear is your dial tone

[Verse 3]
Tell me, do you really care?
I swear that we went nowhere
Or have we been heading down?
Time warps and film burns
Shutter speeds and light curves
Nothing else, ever learned in the end
But I was there for you
When winter ends I’ll be right there holding you
Longing for summer blue
Dreaming isn’t something new
When the snow fades out I’ll be reaching too
I believed in you
I heard you screaming through your phone
Your phone

[Refrain]
I tried just a little bit longer
A nosedive isn’t making me stronger
And I know that silence isn’t what we wanted
But I skipped town, ever since I’ve been running

[Verse 4]
They said I’ll know in time
That I’ll grow into my own
Treat it like it’s do or die
And I’ll do it all alone
You got me wrapped around your fingertip
I’m here for nothing, if I’m not another ego trip
Cause that’s why you had me around
Put that on God, on my crown
Put that on life, on my sound
I know you’re cutting ties
But you’re all that feels like home
Got me fiending for a life
Something greater than my own

[Verse 5]
So I became what you saw in me
It’s a damn shame that you aren’t with me
Looking for blame shouldn’t start with me
When I left you there I lost it
Left behind my sense of conscious
Should’ve left you all alone
Cause I’m tired of all the talking

[Refrain]
Yeah, I tried just a little bit longer
A nosedive isn’t making me stronger
And I know that silence isn’t what we wanted
But I skipped town, ever since I’ve been running
