Digital Weirdness

[shamrock7171]

I recorded a vocal track, and inserted all the necessary plugins to make it sound as best I could. I duplicated that track to accompany myself and add fulness in the mix. After listening to it, I decided to delete the verse portion of the vocal track and leave the chorus to accompany myself. Then the weirdness began. Visually, the waveform of the deleted portion ws gone, but the audio is still present. Why is this happening, and it does anyone have any solutions?

Did you delete the verse from both tracks? If not you still have that piece of audio in the other track.
