Zach Callison - Phantom Love Lyrics






Step inside the life of the man weak enough to follow you
Bury all the strife of the heart that you have hollowed through
Bury our love far, far away from this
You can become one with
The walls again
Scream for your father
Go a little farther
Cut a little harder
But our fates are inked in pen

That was then
And this is the end of

This phantom love
Untied and severed
I was never the one
Is this what you call forever
Made me promise
I would never break your heart
How was I to know that's what you wanted from the start?

Step inside the life of the girl that can do no wrong
Her hands clasped 'round the knife she uses to carve her sad songs
Wash your hands 'til the sinks stain red
And I'm outta your head
Just remember what I said
We decided to just ignore
Just can't cut it anymore
Just remember that I loved you more

But that was then
And this is the end of

This phantom love
Untied and severed
I was never the one
Is this what you call forever?
Made me promise
I would never break your heart
How was I to know that's what you wanted from the start?

Outta control, how long you played me, playing a role
I've been doin' this for a living
Two halves don't make a whole that's not a given
Go in twice, you sold two souls of children to the business
Phantom love was always cold before the start and to the finish
Turn from me, so stare and shoot
I've lost my mind, you scared me too
You've crossed that line, whose using who
It's nothing new, make peace, we're fine
I tried, I lied, to keep you mine
That girl I love I just can't find
Trips me up so I can't see if the messed up one is you or me
See what this city has done to us
Dreams torn apart like a blunderbuss
A hundred gusts of west
The wind has spread us thin
Too much within
Just don't discuss
I hold disgust
I know you must
But knife in hand, there's still distrust
I know you thrust
The moment these words are spoken
You can't love, you only love to be broken

This phantom love
Untied and severed
I was never the one
Is this what you call forever?
Made me promise
I would never break your heart
How was I to know that's what you wanted from the start?

  1. P.... S....

    Zach is amazing-

  2. S.... N....

    Hope you're doing great! Continue singing your songs, and stay healthy while doing it. :)

  3. D.... J....

    Okay I'm confused, is this just an albun, or a full blown musical?

    D.... J....

    @Legit Hooman Thanks Aaron.

    D.... J....

    @David J Thomson I wish it was a musical :'>

  4. 0.... d....

    💞💞💞

  5. K.... C....

    Bro this was a YEAR ago??? This shit slaps👌👌👌

  6. D.... 6....

    Boy who sings Cookie Cat commits MURDER... Breaking News

  7. B.... o....

    Why does this whole album sound like something that would be in Sadie killer and the suspects?

  8. J.... P....

    The song is cool but can I request more positive songs for your next album Zach, I really love your voice and I dont want to listen to songs that make me more depressed than I already am

  9. C.... R....

    Steven sounds great with The Suspects

  10. O.... ....

    i didnt know zach wrote music
    this is awesome

  11. B.... Y....

    I honestly don't care that he is the voice actor for Steven. I'm here for him, and only for that. I love his music so much, and I feel like he gets so much recognition because of Steven Universe, and that's perfectly fine. But guys please remember that this is Zach. Not Steven.

  12. H.... A....

    *THIS IS NOT MY BABY*

  13. l.... ....

    its really hard not to imagine steven singing this sad ass song

  14. Y.... 8....

    ok, HOW IN THE NAME OF SATAN IS THIS SUPER CUTE EDGY AND COOL GUY THE GUY WHO VOICED ADORABLE STEVEN WHO USED TO HAVE NO NECK AND USED TO BE OBBSESSED WITH COOKIE CAT

  15. H.... d....

    Me:
    Literally everyone:
    STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN STEVEN

    H.... d....

    IKR it really is quite annoying.yes I am a SU fan but I was a fan of his music before I discovered the show but what people are doing now isn’t really great 🙁

  16. K.... L....

    Ok so I’ve listened to the whole album but I’m still lost. Can someone explain the entire plot/storyline? Like who the hell is Juanita?

    K.... L....

    The album is about a really devastating breakup Zach went through, as well as his own mental health. "Juanita" is the name he's calling his ex-girlfriend.

  17. T.... A....

    I remember first hearing showtime and thinking
    Wow that sounds like Steven i wanna see more of this guys music
    *i t s l i t t e r l y s t e v e n s v o i c e a c t o r*

  18. d.... _....

    Damm, I thought he went off in the SU movie. But he SNAPPED even HARDER than Thanos did in this album. I hope to God you get more and more recognition as an artist and not "oh hey its Steven Universe." You deserve the best and more 💙

  19. M.... ....

    When did Steven universe get his own album?

  20. s.... m....

    i love tha p!atd vibes, zach’s talent is really showing through with his solo stuff

  21. A.... H....

    Guys, is this a new season or just a playlist? Because I’m super interested!!

    A.... H....

    This is Zach Callison's own music, so it doesn't have anything to do with Steven Universe. There is a new season airing right now though.

  22. l.... u....

    bruh has such a good range, at this point he needs to be on broadway. thank u gn

  23. T.... g....

    When connie breaks steven’s heart

  24. A.... R....

    Definitivamente amo a Zach, es un orgullo para todos los fans de Steven Universe

  25. i.... ....

  26. W.... I....

    He can be so fast! Ahhhh I love it

  27. m.... k....

    Letra en español:

    Entra en la vida del hombre lo suficientemente débil como para seguirte

    Entierra toda la lucha del corazón que has vaciado
    Entierra nuestro amor muy, muy lejos de esto
    Para que puedas volver a ser uno con las paredes
    Grita por tu padre Ir un poco más lejos

    Cortar un poco más duro
    Pero nuestros destinos están en tinta
    Eso fue entonces Y este es el final de
    Este amor fantasma Desatado y cortado Yo nunca fui el
    ¿Es esto lo que llamas para siempre? Me hizo prometer
    Nunca rompería tu corazón
    ¿Cómo iba a saber que eso es lo que querías desde el principio?
    Entra en la vida de la chica que no puede equivocarse
    Sus manos juntas alrededor del cuchillo que usa para tallar sus tristes canciones Lávate las manos hasta que los lavabos se tiñen de rojo
    Y estoy fuera de tu cabeza
    Solo recuerda lo que dije
    Decidimos ignorar
    Simplemente no puedo cortarlo más
    Solo recuerda que te amé más
    Pero eso fue entonces
    Y este es el final de
    Este amor fantasma
    Desatado y cortado
    Yo nunca fui el
    ¿Es esto lo que llamas para siempre?
    Me hizo prometer
    Nunca rompería tu corazón
    ¿Cómo iba a saber que eso es lo que querías desde el principio?
    Fuera de control, cuánto tiempo me jugaste, jugando un papel
    He estado haciendo esto para vivir
    Dos mitades no hacen un todo que no es un hecho
    Entra dos veces, vendiste dos almas de niños al negocio
    El amor fantasma siempre fue frío antes del comienzo y hasta el final
    Apártate de mí, así que mira y dispara Perdí la cabeza, también me asustaste Has cruzado esa línea, cuyo uso de quién
    No es nada nuevo, haz las paces, estamos bien
    Traté, mentí, de mantenerte mía
    Esa chica que amo simplemente no puedo encontrar
    Me hace tropezar, así que no puedo ver si el desordenado eres tú o yo
    Mira lo que esta ciudad nos ha hecho Sueños destrozados como un trabuco
    Cien ráfagas del oeste
    El viento nos ha extendido Demasiado dentro Solo no discutas
    Tengo asco Se que debes
    Pero cuchillo en mano, todavía hay desconfianza Sé que empujaste
    En el momento en que se pronuncian estas palabras
    No puedes amar, solo amas estar roto Este amor fantasma
    Desatado y cortado Yo nunca fui el
    ¿Es esto lo que llamas para siempre?
    Me hizo prometer
    Nunca rompería tu corazón
    ¿Cómo iba a saber que eso es lo que querías desde el principio?

  28. E.... ....

    This is weird, It looks like Steven Universe

  29. E.... D....

  66. T.... E....

    Heres better lyrics cause Youtube is bad at CC
    //These aren't 100% but it's a lot better so//


    Step inside of the life of the man weak enough to follow you.
    Bury all the strife of the heart that you have hallowed through.
    Bury a love far far away from here so you can become one with the walls again.
    Scream for your father, go a little farther, cut a little harder but our fates are in inked in pen.
    That was then, and this is the end of- This phantom love.
    Times differ. I was never the one, is this what you call forever?
    Made me promise I would never break your heart, how was I to know that's what you wanted from the start.

    Step inside the life of the girl who can do no wrong.
    Her hands clasped round the knife she uses to carve her sad songs.
    Wash your hands to the sheets stained red and a bow to your head.
    Just remember what I said.
    When the silence is ignored just cant cut it anymore.
    Just remember that I loved you more.
    But that was then, this is the end of- This phantom love
    From tide and silver. (?)
    I was never the one is this what you call forever?
    Made me promise I would never break your heart, how was I to know that's what you wanted from the start.


    Out of control how long you play me playing a role Ive been doing this for a living, to halfs dont make a whole its not a given. Going twice you sold your soul, the children to the business phantom lovers. All is cold before the start and to the finish.Turn from here she'll stare at you, I lost my mind, you scared me too. You crossed that line whos using who? Its nothing new, babe please were fine.. I tried I lied, spooky Monica (?) I love it just cant find it, juice me up so I can see if the messed up one is you or me. See what this city has done to us, trips in the park like a blunder bus (?) A hundred gusts of west wind is spread as thin to much within to just- (Inaudible for the next two seconds) -You know you trust the moment these words are spoken, you cant love you only love to be broken!


    This phantom love
    From tide and silver. (?)
    I was never the one is this what you call forever?
    Made me promise I would never break your heart, how was I to know that's what you wanted from the start...

  67. Y.... Y....

    I arrived here from tiktok.

  68. M.... W....

  69. T.... W....

    I see this guy as more than just the voice actor of Steven at this point he's an artist with an amazing voice that I'm happy got a good start up and led me here through discovery of his previous character. He's utterly talented and amazing. sorry for my rant I just...dunno he's great

  70. s.... ....

  72. K.... W....

    This sounds like it would go with su

  73. K.... M....

    ok now go watch the pilot of steven universe knowing this is the same voice

  74. M.... G....

    M.... G....

  75. S.... G....

    Goddamn Zach went OFF

  76. M.... ....

  77. S.... S....

    I love this! I found this album through tiktok. It's definitely gonna be one of my favorites!

  78. E.... F....

    All I can hear is Steven from Steven Universe, but this is a great song

    E.... F....

    Cuz it IS Steven

  79. T.... B....

    I love this

  80. Z.... C....

    I love this song so much 💙💙 thank you

  81. B.... R....

    Steven universe

  82. P.... ....

    I'm gonna be honest.. holy shit... this blew me away!

  83. T.... V....

    Now make Steven sing this 😂

  84. A.... S....

    Damn! This is such an amazing song!

  85. M.... T....

    Love his music still imagine and picture Steven singing his new album

  86. d.... d....

    Wait wait, the picture in the video. Is it the cover of album or the cover of a movie/play? Because he has been in more then su I know that

    d.... d....

    It’s the cover of the album.

    d.... d....

    @Burnt Exploding Popcorn Studios ok thank you! Now I just have piece togather things I'm confused about

  87. O.... W....

    Oh fuck yeah

  88. P.... M....

    I think ima stick with Steven universe music

    P.... M....

    Poke Maps
    Makes one of us

  89. P.... P....

    This has serious twenty one pilots vibes in a way

  90. L.... S....

    I’m so in love with the chorus! It has this melancholic edge to it that just sounds so sweet with his voice.

    Also, “I was never the one, is this what you call forever” has a nice delivery, honestly

  91. T.... ....

    I want to listen to this openly, but all I hear is Steven 😭😭. I know Zach is more than Steven... but its like Robert Pattinson, a lot of ppl know him from Twilight, so even when he plays completely different roles in other movies, there’s always that little voice saying “Hey, that’s Edward.” I know it’s probably a bad comparison, but it’s true.

  92. M.... S....

    Oml he sounds so beautiful🥺 I’m so mad I was sleeping on this album. It’s so amazing🙌🏾

  93. D.... ....

    Whut is thiiss

  94. D.... S....

    Emo Steven

  95. I.... S....

    Is it bad that I love him for the same reason that 14 year old girls like Billie Eilish?

  96. D.... ....

    Nobody:

    Really nobody:

    Fangirls: I CaN MaKe A ChAnGe!

  97. S.... U....

    2:55 is my fav part (i LOVE his raping)

    S.... U....

    *rapping

    S.... U....

    Not Trustworthy oh my god😭😭

  98. Y.... b....

    Ok wtf steven was kawaii and wholesome and now zach is edgy and evil ok im *S H A K I N G R I G H T N O W*
