There’s a ghost in my bedroom

What I’m gonna do
-All the things start to move
Suggesting that unusual activities or disturbances are happening.
There’s a ghost in my bedroom

Keeping me awake
Desiring the ghost to leave and the speaker to regain a sense of peace and sleep.
Make it go away
-There’s a ghost in my bedroom
Repetition of the ghostly presence and its impact on the speaker.
And it comes to me at night
Describing the ghost's visitation at night, causing shivers down the speaker's spine.
Shivers down my spine
