Rob Bailey & The Hustle Standard - Plan My Attack

Title: Ghosts of Yesterday  (part 1)
Lyrics and arrangement by PRF Soundscapes (All rights reserved 2025)
*************************
A lonely woman calls back to the past...
It shows how desperate she is to understand or fix something.
Ghosts are the things that keep pulling her back.

Ghosts of Yesterday is the emotional legacy of the past that still haunts a woman and prevents her from healing. 

The track has a punchy upbeat interspersed with dubstep sections and super saws that emphasize the protagonist's desperation and pain. Enjoy this one! And listen to the man's reaction in part 2 that will come out soon.
**************************************

I pull out my phone, try dialling to the past
Hoping to hear your voice, even if it wouldn’t last
But the line stays quiet, like the love that slipped away
My love, I’m calling - please answer me, I pray
Help me break free from the ghosts of yesterday
The ghosts of yesterday…

You ran from the darkness, from hands that struck hard
Left a girl behind who grew into a guarded woman
Your love was my shelter, till the rage tore it apart
Now I’m searching for a way to heal this broken heart

In the wreckage of my youth, I still feel your warm embrace
The sound of your laughter held a quiet kind of grace.
You left to save yourself — I wished that you had stayed 
But you disappeared, love, because you were afraid

I pull out my phone, try dialling to the past
Hoping to hear your voice, even if it wouldn’t last
But the line stays quiet, like the love that slipped away
My love, I’m calling - please answer me, I pray
Help me break free from the ghosts of yesterday
The ghosts of yesterday…

You slipped away softly, couldn’t bear the pain and strain
The ghosts of yesterday nearly drove me insane
Left to pick up pieces while no one seemed to care
All that remained was a lost soul drowning in despair
Help me break free from the ghosts of yesterday
The ghosts of yesterday…

Through this ghost town I walk, still carrying your name
 In the silence of the night, you’re the only steady flame.
Though the years keep trying to break me, I cling to your grace
My love, I’m still calling in this empty, haunted space
The ghosts of yesterday…
