Lyrics

We met halfway between his place and mine
Love on sight
The chemistry was wild, it was way off the charts
It was strong
That's when we realized why our exes were ex
We talked of the future and of me moving in
Then he was gone
How could something so right go so wrong?

Angels, can you hold me tight
I don't want to be alone tonight
He chose to be an avoidant
Now I'm his phantom ex

He made the choice to not face the pain
End our relationship
To choose to go back to his toxic ways
It was effortless
Now, he's living in a dream, comparing everyone to me
Diving into work to keep his heart from feeling
Never to reflect
And whosoever is in his bed, I'll be them

And when he tries to get close to someone new
He won't let them in
Cause I'll forever haunt the space in his head
To never let him forget

Angels, can you hold me tight
I don't want to be alone tonight
He chose to be an avoidant
Now I'm his phantom ex
