Ghosts in the Hallway

▶ Play this song to follow along.

[Verse 1]

Talking when silence was due,

Making jokes out of whatever we knew,

Living the moments as we wanted them to be,

Not knowing what else was left to be.

Never bothered by what was wrong or right,

Standing for our friends, ready to fight,

Roaming around, doing mischief,

Being together was the biggest relief.

[Verse 2]

Our antics were beyond compare,

So much to remember, so much that we shared.

Sports Day, Pg, Cross Country, and more,

These events filled us with laughter like never before.

All this didn't stop there,

We kept making our moments everywhere.

[Pre]

Doing all our कांड्स almost illegally,

And then dividing all the fault equally.

Whenever we gathered casually,

All the gossiping and judging came to us naturally.

Bunking during exhibitions, just to have some fun,

Acting innocent even when we knew exactly what we had done.

Hearing our teachers and trying not to laugh,

Having lunch while sitting at the back of the class.

Toppers among toppers, backbenchers among backbenchers,

Turning an ordinary day into our own little adventures.

[Chorus]

We sat together seriously to talk about things further,

And we always ended up spilling tea and shipping others together.

Can't figure out how the time passed so fast,

We just kept going, hoping it would last.

[Bridge]

The three years all together were a celebration,

And the silence before the storm that changed our situation.

All those years, we were by each other's side,

Hoping the same section would be our guide.

[Final Verse]

Instead of staying the same, our sections split apart,

Slowly increasing the distance between our hearts.

We never thought we'd drift apart this way,

Or lose the closeness we had every day.

Some found new friends, some sat behind their screens,

Waiting for their unread messages to be seen.
