The Ghost
And he was like
"Look, when we used to brush our teeth
I would brush our teeth
Thinking that it was gonna be forever
But it wasn't"
We used to notice the same things
His toenails, that little pug
But that changed, you couldn't see
The grave we dug
You didn't seem to notice
Me, deep in the ground
I couldn't move, I called out to you
But made no sound
Thought you were gone
But four years on, you're back again
Stop haunting me, please
Just leave me be, please
When a lover speaks to me
I'm scared I'll say your name
When they're asleep
With their back facing me
I see your frame
Thought you were gone
But five years on, you're back again
Stop haunting me, please
Stop haunting me, please
Stop haunting me, please
Just leave me be, please
Sometimes my mind drops me
Back in our room
I stand and look around
The cushions, the grey ground
Your perfume
Thought you were gone
But six years on, you're back again
Stop haunting me, please
Stop haunting me, please
Stop haunting me, please
Just leave me be
What am I meant to do
With how much I loved you?
It's everywhere, it's under my nails
It's in my hair
Stop haunting me, please
Stop haunting me, please, ooh
Stop haunting me, please
Just set me free, please
Please
Please
