Ghost
Unveiling Heartbreak: The Haunting Tale of Love's Ghost by India Dupriez
Lyrics
Just got a call from your mother
Received a call from your mother
You're seeing someone else
Learned that you're involved with someone else
She thinks you're missing out
Your mother believes you're missing out on something
Just got a drink with your father
Had a drink with your father
I don't know how to say this
Struggling to express a difficult message
He said he isn't proud
Your father admits he's not proud
Maybe only one of us was ready
Suggesting only one of the individuals involved was prepared
But baby, you let me down
Feeling disappointed because you let me down
You say I like taking it to the extreme
Accused of pushing things to the extreme
So you're gonna feel it now
Consequences are imminent for your actions
Wait till I snap then I'm a Ghost
Anticipating a transformation into a ghost after reaching a breaking point
Yeah you see me everywhere that you go
Making an impact everywhere you go, like a haunting presence
And I love that I'm the one you hate the most
Taking satisfaction in being the person you despise the most
Sitting pretty while I'm putting on a show
Confidently displaying oneself while causing a spectacle
Like a ghost
Comparing oneself to a ghost, perhaps feeling invisible or detached
But I'm the
Transitioning to...
(Ghost)
...a repeated reference to being a ghost
And I know that you think that you let it go
Believing that you've moved on, but one's ghostly presence remains
But my ghost will never leave you alone
The lingering impact of the speaker's "ghost" won't leave you
Baby right when you think that she's getting close
Just when you think someone new is approaching, it vanishes
It's up in smoke
Any potential connection dissipates
Maybe only one of us was ready
Reiteration that only one of them was prepared for the situation
But baby you let me down
Expressing disappointment again for being let down
You say I like taking it to the extreme
Accused once more of taking things to the extreme
So you're gonna feel it now
Warning of the impending consequences for actions
Wait till I snap then I'm a Ghost
Anticipating a transformation into a ghost, repeating the theme
Yeah you see me everywhere that you go
Continued presence everywhere, emphasizing the haunting nature
And I love that I'm the one you hate the most
Taking pleasure in being the most disliked individual
Sitting pretty while I'm putting on a show
Confidently displaying oneself while creating a spectacle
Like a ghost
Reiterating the comparison to a ghostly presence
But I'm the
Transitioning to...
(Ghost)
...a repeated reference to being a ghost
Wait till I snap then I'm a Ghost
Anticipating once more the transformation into a ghostly figure
Yeah you see me everywhere that you go
Continued pervasive presence, echoing the haunting theme
And I love that I'm the one you hate the most
Deriving satisfaction from being the most disliked
Sitting pretty while I'm putting on a show
Confidently displaying oneself while causing a spectacle
Like a ghost
Reinforcing the comparison to a ghostly presence
But I'm the
Transitioning to...
(Ghost)
...a repeated reference to being a ghost
Yeah you see me everywhere that you go
Continued pervasive presence, emphasizing the haunting nature
And I love that I'm the one you hate the most
Taking pleasure in being the most disliked individual
Sitting pretty while I'm putting on a show
Confidently displaying oneself while creating a spectacle
Like a ghost
Reiterating the comparison to a ghostly presence
But I'm the
Transitioning to...
(Ghost)
...a repeated reference to being a ghost
