Melanie Martinez Haunted

I could pull the sheets over my head,

And never get out of this bed.

But what would that do?

I avoid all mirrors

'Cause I'm scared to look into my eyes

When I only see you.

 

It's like you're always creeping

On the walls, and in my feelings

All those stories about ghosts

Are really true.

 

I put one foot, in front of the other

In front of the other

Slowly, I turn every corner

Turn every corner

Even when you're nowhere in the room

I'm haunted by you.

I light all the candles

Light all the candles

The darkness is too hard to handle

Too hard to handle

Sleeping is just something I can't do

I'm haunted by you.

 

I can hear you talking in the distance

Your persistence is so cruel.

And all your words pull at my feet,

And I fall back in love with you.

What can I do?

 

It's like you're always creeping

On the walls, and in my feelings

All those stories about ghosts

Are really true.

 

I put one foot, in front of the other

In front of the other

Slowly, I turn every corner

Turn every corner

Even when you're nowhere in the room

I'm haunted by you.

I light all the candles

Light all the candles

The darkness is too hard to handle

Too hard to handle

Sleeping is just something I can't do

 

We used to be so warm

Now we're just in a storm

Slowly freezing up my heart.

 

We used to be so warm

Now we're just in a storm

Slowly freezing up my heart.

Heart, heart.

 

I put one foot, in front of the other

In front of the other

Slowly, I turn every corner

Turn every corner

Even when you're nowhere in the room

I'm haunted by you.

I light all the candles

Light all the candles

The darkness is too hard to handle

Too hard to handle

Sleeping is just something I can't do

I'm haunted by you.
