Dean Jonez - You don’t get to haunt me for free

Lyrics: Your lipstick’s gone from the bathroom glass Your jacket ain’t behind my seat But some nights that old passenger side Still feels like you’re riding with me I changed the sheets, changed the number Changed the route I take back home Funny how you can clear a whole damn house And still not get somebody gone I pour one less than I used to Drive a little slower past your street But every quiet room gets expensive When memory charges by the week I paid in sleep I paid in pride Paid every night I swallowed what you did You already took the best of goodbye You don’t get interest on it YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE If you’re gonna live in my head, you owe me peace You took the leaving Left the staying here with me Now every room in this mind got a key I gave you love You gave me something I still bleed But pain ain’t property And you don’t own what’s left of me So if your ghost wants one more night— It better pay what it costs to be You don’t get to haunt me for free Not for free... Not anymore. Saw you last week through a windshield Red light, quarter after two Somebody laughing in your passenger seat Like I used to laugh with you And for one second I got jealous Then I caught myself and laughed ’Cause it wasn’t you I was missing I was missing us from the past No, I ain’t calling No drunk text No circling back for what came next No paying twice for the same mistake No giving a ghost another key to take You can keep that rearview history I finally learned what mirrors mean They show me where I already was Not where the hell I need to be I paid in years I paid in trust Paid for believing almost was enough You spent every piece of us There ain’t nothing left to collect Got my broken heart to protect YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE If you’re gonna live in my head, you owe me peace You took the leaving Left the staying here with me Now every room in this mind got a key I gave you love You gave me something I still bleed But pain ain’t property And you don’t own what’s left of me So if your ghost wants one more night— It better pay what it costs to be YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE IF YOU’RE GONNA LIVE IN MY HEAD, YOU OWE ME PEACE YOU TOOK THE LEAVING LEFT THE STAYING HERE WITH MEE NOW EVERY ROOM IN THIS MIND GOT A KEY I GAVE YOU LOVE YOU GAVE ME SOMETHING I STILL BLEED BUT PAIN AIN’T PROPERTY AND YOU DON’T OWN WHAT’S LEFT OF ME So if your ghost wants one more night— It better pay what it costs to be YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE So tonight I’m changing one last lock The one I should’ve changed before Not on the truck Not on the house On what I keep your memory for You can be a chapter You can be a scar Hell, you can be the reason I got this far But you don’t get to be my future Just because you broke my past YOU DON’T GET TO HAUNT ME FOR FREE I finally bought back every part of me You took the leaving Now I’m taking what it means No more renting out my nights to memory Yeah, I loved you once That doesn’t make you destiny Pain ain’t property And you don’t own what’s left of me If your ghost comes knocking tonight— It’s gonna find I changed the key You don’t get to haunt me for free Funny thing about ghosts They disappear If there is nothing holding them here
