Faster Than Love - Bao Binh
Mid-night, we roam empty streets
Hiding truths behind deceit
I wear a mask that makes me tough
Silence screams it's not enough
It's stronger now, you laugh, you shine
While I pretend I'm doing fine
Behind your back, I walk your way
Never have the nerve to say
I'm chasing shadows
Chasing shadows of the past
Faster than love could ever last
I'm the ghost behind your smile
Watching from a lonely mile
I gave you pain and wore a grin
To help you let go deep within
But I'm still yours just out of sight
Alone each endless night
I licked your tears and walked away
Told you lies, missed your face
I thought that pain would make you heal
But now it's me who hides the feel
I'm chasing shadows
I'm chasing shadows of the past
Faster than love could ever last
I'm the ghost behind your smile
Watching from a lonely mile
I gave you pain and wore a grin
To help you let go deep within
But I'm still yours just out of sight
Alone each endless night
Every whisper of your name
Burns me slow with silent flame
I tried to set your spirit free
But locked myself in memory
I'm chasing shadows of the past
Faster than love could ever last
I'm the one who walked away
But near you every day
I gave you pain, I told a lie
To teach my heart goodbye
I'm still the one you're holding tight
Though I lost you to the light
Faster than love, passed you
To the night
Faster than love I disappeared
But I never left, I stayed right here
